Hello Holger:
I appreciate your input, but unfortunately, this
procedure has made things worse. NOTHING will work
at all with that setting. I've had to change back.
Any other ideas?

P.S. Read on... I'm CC'ing this to Carl Sassenrath,
as at least one other member of this list has suggested
that the RT team may have to look at this
==================================================
Carl:
I do a lot of CGI programming and have done so since
the internet starting breaking lose here in Alaska.
I currently use C/C++ and have used and written for
NT platforms.
For the last year, I have been aware of rebol and have
followed your progress with great interest. I have
identified rebol as the scripting language for the
internet.
Furthermore, I have identified rebol as the platform
for a test project that will serve several state and
municipal agencies. I agreed to donate my time and
learn rebol to get this project off the ground. I'm
putting my professional self on the line here, and
to a certain extent rebol.
A little bit about Alaska here:
Highest investment per capita in the internet of
any state in the nation.
The third highest investment by state and municipal agencies
of any state in the nation.
There's a high probability that Alaska could become a
global crossroad in internet and telecommunications
technology - given proximity to asia and the investment
interest here in the state.
This offers a potential market penetration for rebol as
a programming medium for Internet and telecommunications
applications.
I'm a rebol newbie, and I'm no genius, (my knowledge of
TCP/IP and DNS is limited), but with my background
I can give rebol a showcase. AND I just may be able
to save some lives too.
Only, I just can't get rebol to do anything with FTP!
The support of the mailing list has been great, but
this just might be something that a member of the
rebol development team may have to take a look at.
Carl, I hope to hear from you.
regards
Tim Johnson
