Ignore my last question RE: JNDI setup problems

[Bonnie MacKellar <BM...@mobius.com>]

I feel like a dunce. I found an old post in 
the mailing list archives with the exact same
error, and was able to track down the
problem with the repository_database.xml file

Thanks for everyone's help on 
all my questions!
