moonv6 post from Chris Mitchell <cmitch@windows.microsoft.com> I can confirm that we have the NetSH commands in our "RC2" build that just released last Friday. For those of you on the beta you should be able to down-load this now. We would love the validation from you that this work if you have the time. You can follow-up with Michael and I offline as I know this is not the main purpose of this distribution list.

Thanks,

moonv6 post from JF Tremblay <jean-francois.tremblay@hexago.com> Thanks for the followup Jeroen.
It turns out support for proto-41 may finally make it in Vista. We received a notice from Michael Surkan, Program Manager at MS, saying it should be in last week's build. Michael, maybe you could confirm this.

Thanks,
Jean-Francois Tremblay
Research Engineer, Hexago
