Hello again,
In the e-mail SEREVR was mispelled, but not in the actual test :-)
Thanks for spending the time and explaining a few things about Linux, but I
don't actually have a linux box anymore and I need to get REBOL CGI working
on an windows based systems as I usually host on NT server to use ASP.
Regards,
Marco
