    I tried running strace oowriter......here's the end of the output where
    it is hanging up.

    time(NULL) = 1102119632
    socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 27
    fcntl64(27, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0
    setsockopt(27, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, [1], 4) = 0
    setsockopt(27, SOL_TCP, TCP_NODELAY, [1], 4) = 0
    connect(27, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(631),
    sin_addr=inet_addr("64.15.205.241")}, 16) = -1 ECONNREFUSED (Connection
    refused)
    close(27) = 0

    which then repeats with ther addresses 64.15.205.155, 64.15.205.180,
    64.15.205.202, and several others. The delay in starting is caused by
    the timeout on all the connections. Can anybody explain what on earth is
    happening?
