Well, last night I finally fixed all the log1p problems and compiled everything. Somewhere in one of the readme's it says to invoke the server with GB_server <port_no>. I do so. It says 'Galactic bloodshed x2.1.1..blah blah'. It then says 'blah blah' is the update password. Then it just sits there. If I ^C out of it, I can't use the client to call in. So what am I doing wrong? Do I need to define the host too? After I set up the server, do I need to invoke the daemon also?

Just add an '&' at the end of your GB_server <port> line. Or you could do a Control-Z instead of a Control-C and then type 'bg' at the prompt. This will put the server in the background just as if you typed an '&' at the end of the invoking line. eric -- Eric J.
