Hi;

I posted this to Moo-Calves, and did not get a solution, though I got some
great suggestions.  If anyone could help, I'd appreciate it.

I have 8 'guests' on Moooise.  Three of them were created recently.
These three get the following error when people try to use them, and no
login takes place.  The other five function fine.


#20:connection_hostname_bsd, line 3:  Type mismatch
... called from #20:connection_hostname, line 2
... called from #10:record_connection, line 8
... called from #10:co*nnect @co*nnect, line 65
... called from #0:do_login_command, line 20
(End of traceback)


I did for a while change the
@setprop #32.home to #16 (an alternative home for guests with help
information).  I have returned it to #16.

Could this have done it?

This is 1.7.9 version of LM, and I am working on upgrading the db, but it
will take a while because the box that I'm on does not have a proper C
compiler working since it was upgraded.


Any suggestions as to how I might repair this, if I've indeed done it?

TIA,

Jason
