Hello!

Thanks for your contribution, though your patches aren't included
literally, their spirit is.

1) DODS has changed a lot, one of changes is: config directory isn't at
fixed location, thus no configuration files are read until actually
used, so applications not using DODS (those without DatabaseManager
section in their conf files) have no problems. We tested this on example
apps: Chat, Calculator, FOP, GolfShop, ... If you have DatabaseManager
section you must have DODS conf file.

Your patch introduces a problem for apps which are using DODS. We are
trying to solve this with another conf file param.

2) EnTray now exists for KDE too, so 'lst' file generation may be needed
on GNU/Linux. Anyways this feature can be suppressed with
Server.WriteApplicationList parameter in multiserver.conf file. 

Actually Enhydra5.1rc2 doesn't have this parameter (it was added next
day), in RC2: you should start Server.ServiceName with sign '/' to
produce same behavior.
