It turns out that tcpborphserver had become defunct. After I restarted
it, I got an very encouraging response:

It failed at this point because
_tkinter.TclError: couldn't connect to display "localhost:10.0"
which I will figure out. (I'm tunneling through the JPL firewall from home.)
Thanks to all for the advice.

Here are a couple of things to check: Does the bof file have execute
permissions? Is it in the right directory?
So as I already wrote, I had not copied the bof file into
roachnest:/var/roach1_root/boffiles/. I did that and the permissions are:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 kuiper kuiper 4469216 Feb 29 09:22
r_spec_2048_r105_2010_Jul_26_1205.bof
However, I still get the same timeout error message.
I assume that tcpborphserver is running because I can telnet to port
4147. It doesn't respond to
?help
though, which is probably related to the timeout problem.
