Hi Bob,
You should login to Spider with the sysop call you entered in DXVars.pm
as per the manual.  You only login as sysop to the Linux prompt.  You do
not say if it is the Windows or Linux version you are running.  If there
is a section of the manual that is not as sharp as it should be I should
know.  Can you point out the section you are quoting from please?
Cheers
Ian
