[Nel] snowballs data path errors on linux

[Garry Keltie]

Hi List,

We have the server running on Linux and the client on win2000 (havent managed 
to get it go on winNT/XP yet).

Running the client on linux I get some errors relating to file paths.

My data is in the path specified by client.cfg, in 
/usr/local/etc/snowballs/client.cfg. The files bitched about do exist.

I notice in snowballs2/client/src/client.cpp line 165~171 are commented out, 
this anything to do with it?

Cheers

Garry
