TANKS, Its working!

the setup:
- minivend runs as minivend user
- catalog owner has minivend user as member in user group
- catalog lives in /home/user directory
- catalog is ownd by user and user group writable to owner + group and 
sugid too
- using tlink
- I had to change ownership on tlink from minivend.minivend to user.usergroup


Now my question is: I have a secure server running on another machine. can 
I copy tlink over and use it from ther?  I also remember reading about an 
SSL connection between tlink and the minivend server over a network. Any info?
