Funny you should ask, as I used to be one of XMission's system administrators,
and just this week moved to Virginia to work for Red Hat as an Interchange
developer.

The problem is that the shell server where you are doing the installation is
not the same machine as the web server where your virtual host is located, you
will need to do one of the following things:

* Convince XMission to install interchange systemwide on the web servers and
  setup a catalog for you.

* Arrange with XMission to get the interchange server running on the webserver
  your virtual host is located on.

* Use tlink and set it up to connect to the interchange server you are running
  on the shell server.

* Write a CGI script you can load through your web site which will run the
  interchange server on the same machine your virtual host is located on.
