Re: [mv] What are the 'right' permissions

OK, I think that I may have found the reason behind the first problem (no route to host)  I checked the
catalog.cfg file for simple and found that it was set to point to the long name for my machine (I'm on
@home).  I tried changing this and restarting, but all the links still seem to be pointing to this
incorrect address.  It seems like the server is working though.

Which means that the second problem is the sticky one.  When I set up a new catalog (running as root),
restart the server and go looking for it, I get "undefined catalog"

Oh, and sorry -- the home.microsoft.com below was anti-spam -- I took it out -- hopefully no address
gleaming bots on this system
