[JDEV] jserver and etherxd

[Koichi Moriyama]

Dear Schuyler,

Thank you very much for your quick reply on Sat. - really appreciated !

But, <remote>...</remote> has been commented out, and commenting a tag
<mod_version>...</mod_version> out doen't solve the problem.

Let me check a little bit more -- I might post a log that should show
what happens.
