Hi everyone,

I found this post searching the archives for info on integrating the UPS
OnLine Tools. The link no longer works and I'm wondering if this tarball
is still available anywhere. A client of mine is switching to UPS
exclusively for their shipping, and I need to change from using the
internal lookup method for their shipping rates to either Interchange's
online lookup or the UPS Online Tools lookup.

The UPS Online Tools would seem to be my best bet as my client is using 
Negotiated Rates rather than the standard rates. If I can get their site 
to lookup shipping rates directly from UPS with their account info, that 
seems like the smoothest way to have accurate info displayed for their 
customers.

If anyone has implemented Chris's solution or knows where it's located 
now, please let me know. Chris, if you're still subscribed, please write 
me and let me know the status of this implementation.

Thank you,
Tom
