>In the dsmcutil readme file it says that the dsm.opt file would be
>overridden by anything else specified when starting the Services and using
>the /OPTFILE:optionsfile option.  I specified no such thing, it also says
>that it will grab the file from the CLIENTDIR.  The clientdir if not
>specified is defaulted to the current directory, which I assume is the
>directory where the Services and everything else resides - in my case
>it is the BACLIENT directory.  Am I missing something?  Should I have to
>specify additional info although all the defaults are correct?
>Please shed some light, I'm wilting here....
