Hey Monty, FYI (unless you already know), the sender doesn't see your message. For some reason, the SourceForge issue tracking forwards any changes to the DQSD-Devel list, AND sends out a separate e-mail (presumably to some BCC list) about it. Most of the people using the issue tracking aren't subscribed to any of the DQSD lists.
I sent a private e-mail to Brian Phelps in an attempt to sort out what's wrong with his installation, and I also directed him to the DQSD-Users list, but I haven't heard back yet.
