Great! I'll check the content length - right now, it's looking to
be some sort of network (maybe firewall) issue.  When I have
it figured out I will report back.  But instrumenting the mongrel
handler I wrote shows that it's attempting to put out a reasonable
response header.

Unfortunately security on this system is difficult - I just got
sudo access to tcpdump... I started out as a sysadmin,  but
man, they drive me crazy sometimes...

Did I say that mongrel rocks?

Thanks Zed.
