hi,

in one week i plan to enable the new web server on hemlock.  this will
hopefully solve the problems people are seeing with long-running scripts.

until then, people should test their sites with the new server.  you can do
this by using 'toolserver.org:81' in the URL, instead of 'toolserver.org'.  for
example, if your tool is at:
  http://toolserver.org/~johnsmith/mytool.php
you would use:
  http://toolserver.org:81/~johnsmith/mytool.php

if everything works correctly, you do not need to do anything.

if you have a problem, and cannot solve it yourself, please let me know and
i'll investigate.

if you use rewrite rules, you need to convert them to the new server's rewrite
format.  this page explains how to do that:

  https://wiki.toolserver.org/view/ZWS

please do not distribute the toolserver.org:81 URLs (except for testing), as
they will stop working in a week.  if you are having problems with the current
web server, and would like to be moved to the new one before a week, let me
know.  people who requested this during the last test have been moved to the
new server already.  that is: kalan agony luxo pathoschild

the final change to the new web server, assuming there are no major problems,
will be Tuesday, 2nd December.

	- river.
