Until recently I've been unable to use the xml-rpc driver. After reading one of Joels recent posts I thought that it was possible that the issues was to do with me being on a case sensitve operating system (Linux). I changed the occasions in the source taht I could find of "Xindice" and converted them to "xindice". I got a connection for the first time.
Does anyone have an objection to me commiting this change? -k.
