Thanks, pascal..

I think the mod_jserv is OK. I didn't download the binary, I built it from  
jserv source. I downloaded the source using neither Netscape nor Explorer  
(  OSX server uses OmniWeb, a simpler browser ), but its downloads are  
reliable, and I think errors should show up in the build messages, should  
they not?
