Okay, enough chasing red herrings. The real problem seems to be
something on the server side:

------

This error does *not* occur when connecting to the ZEO over localhost;
only when over a network connection. Hmmm. I'm going to try running the
server off another box to see how it goes. Nope, no dice.

(Is the ZEO protocol optimized/different for localhost connections, I
wonder...)

This error pretty much is making authentication unusable (at least for
me). Has anyone else on the list used it at all?

Take care,
