I have poked a bit in the code and still cannot get gnuclient on one
machine to talk to the gnuserv on a different machine. I am using Epoch
3.2 and the gnuservX from uiuc.edu. I get a new buffer if I do gnuclient
on the machine that I start the serve on. However, when I do "gnuclient
-h hostname filename" on a different machine, I just get my prompt
back. I do get exit status 0...

If the server process is not running at all, I DO get the cannot connect
message.

What am I stupidly missing?

       The difference between theory and practice in practice is greater
           than the difference between theory and practice in theory.
