Hi, Thanks, adding the redirect to my .rootrc file worked but I believe that Pete wants to disable the setting of variables like this in the KanAccess.cfg files. You seem to suggest that this has been fixed in later versions: How new do the versions have to be and do you know which BaBar release has the fixed version? Disallowing the WAN connects and redirects is done by default for a good reason and I'd rather not bypass it unless we have to.
