Re: Misterhouse question



Stuart,
I've spent most of evening with Misterhouse and your IRC log.  Things
are now far better, but I've still got some problems.  Have you(or anybody
else) seen any of these:
1: If I have my internet connection up an running before I connect to
localhost:8080 the browser is unable to find it.
2: When I click on commands mh abends and restarts, the error I see on the
log is 'cannot redirect STDOUT: bad file descripor.  The same thing happens
if I selelect misterhouse from the list of items under 'password
protected'.
However, the two commands I set up following Stuarts tutorial (one to turn
on my test lamp and appliance modules and one to turn them off work fine).

Great tutorial Stuart, thank you, oh and I'm using Win98 on a K2-6 500 so I
set tk=0.  Seems to use little CPU.
