[Dxspider-support] Winspider telnet help?

[Charlie Carroll]

Ed:
I also have/had a listeners.pm problem.  I'm using either NT or W2K as the
OS, which maybe part of the problem.  I believe Dirk is still working thru
the OS issues.
In the meantime, Dirk suggest the use of "0.0.0.0" in listeners.pm.  Since I
made that change, it has worked fine.  Give it a whirl.
