Thanks Robin

I totally agree with you about it being good practice to avoid root, but my
initial attempts to get the handle server to run as tomcat55 failed, so I
thought I'd ask about problems using root.

I guess I'll try harder, but if anybody has an init script, I'd appreciate
it.

Thanks,
Sean
