First, please let me know the fully-qualified name of the machine on which
you are running the ADDE server.  I will see what I can see by trying to
access that server using McIDAS-X.  If I run into problems, I may be able
to provide you information on what else needs to be done to the ADDE/system
setup to get things working.  If I am not able to do this, I may ask you
for a login to the machine (as 'mcidas' and possibly with 'root' access)
so I can review the setup to make sure that everything is as it should
be.

Cheers,

Tom
