Yea, it probably did.  Every time I run the network install it seems
to update one or two packages.

You shouldn't need to be admin to run any of this.  I run it on
boxes without admin priviledges and it runs just fine.  I haven't
tried having a username with a space in it, but I don't think that's
normally allowed in Unix, so that's likely to cause problems.

Glad you have it transmitting.  Just a bit of clean-up to do yet and
the AGWPE stuff will be more useful for people.  I want to be able
to specify the PATH in the Properties dialog for that interface and
to get the AGWPE login/password frame working properly.
