I found out that my linking cgi script was looking for the socket (for UNIX
mode) in the wrong place because it was created with makecat from my tar
installation, while /usr/sbin/interchange was specifying the standard socket
location from an rpm installation. viewing the output of strings on my
linking script revealed the discrepancy.
Thanks for the help, Mike.
