The two are running on the same machine (I'm writing a program that uses 
Anthill and my test environment is all local).  I should however say 
that I'm not using the latest version of Anthill.  Would updating to the 
newest version possibly help?  If I do have to update how much has 
changed from the previous version to the most recent one?  I am 
reluctant to update because I am worried that the new version won't be 
compatible with my code but if this is the only way to get a scheduled 
build to work I'll have to bite the bullet.  Thanks, Philip.
