<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I see most of your questions were answered by now
- Thanks all!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The actors were removed from the latest release due

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Currently Kepler supports SRB Version 3.2. The
current Kepler architecture limits us to using packages as specified
by the classpath and thus prevents us from using multiple versions of the same
classes. Future plans (KSW: <A

hopefully be able to provide solutions to versioning
issues. </FONT></DIV>

<BR>> thanks all, I found the missing actors in alpha5 release as Tim
suggested and will use this till the next release is available. I still have
trouble figuring how to give a path name to Sproxy list command ( a string
constant gives a type mismatch). But I can wait till Tuesday. thanks for your
