My first attempt at getting the error again was my previous post.
Obviously, since the post made it, I didn't get the error. I've set the
environment variables as delineated in the referenced site and
re-booted, the PC. So here's my second attempt at getting the error
again. I've set the offending server as the default, this time. Perhaps
that will be the difference maker. With any luck, this post won't make
it to the newsgroup.
