if it helps you give any more info, we're running OpenBSD. Thanks for all the
assistance you've given so far -- basically, the tech running our server is a
real idiot (who desperately needs to be replaced) and has some crusade against
Java, so I (a mere designer with moderate programming experience) have to try
to set this stupid thing up.... so, any additional or specific info would be
awesome... if you prefer to not clutter up the list, feel free to email me
directly at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
