Much appreciated.

Though is this necessary between two instances of Hermes? I am simply
trying to send messages between Hermes instances on the same machine.

I've built my little system and prototyped it with the xmlrpc and now
that I have switched over I wish that SOAP was never invented :-)

At any rate, I don't have any choice. Everything in the system is
working now except this so I'll be here until I resolve it.

Peter is helping me out a great deal and I intend not to just whine.
I'll write some docs when I'm done. I know all too well how OSS projects
work where docs are sorely lacking and the docs are confusing. There is
no test suite checked in and the loopback example doesn't really serve
as a 'real world' example.

I'm sure it's very likely that I have a misconfiguration that's crept
in, but I have no idea given the overall exception handler. Most likely
SAAJ is the culprit.

In short, man creates for himself a new religion of a rational
and technical order to justify his work and to be justified in it.
