Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to Server won't serve anything once .tcl libraries loaded at startup.

Foreign host is whatever host is on the other end of your
connection.

Check your server's log files for the answer at
/usr/local/aolserver/log/server-???.log or wherever it might be.
Your server is probably generating some error in a preauth filter.
(I created a patch for AOLServer 4.0 to return an error to the user
in this case instead of just dying.  We'll see what they do with
it.)
