When communicating with another server, you *should* use Python's normal
techniques (urllib, httplib, etc).  Webware doesn't contain any specific
code to handle that sort of operation -- in general, Webware doesn't
recreate code that already is available in Python.

I assume you were using something like urlForward -- that's only meant
to be used to redirect from one servlet to another.
