We're probably nearing the limits of my socket programming knowledge, and I'm 
definitely nearing the limit of the amount of time I can spend for this week 
on an "on-the-side" software installation like Majordomo II.  So if you're 
willing to wait about a week, I can see what I can come up with, but if you 
want to get something before then, it might be best if you wrote the test 
code; if you do, I'll make some time to try it out.
