Nope...  just trying to connect!  It won't even let me do that.  I checked
out hosts.allow and added localhost, 127.0.0.1, the machine name, and
*.network.domain ... still no luck.

I did get this to work locally, and across the net once.  I forgot how I
did it though.  :(

Thanks for the help though....  Any other thoughts?
