[LON-CAPA-admin] Momentary Panic - Authen/Captcha.pm?

Stuart,

Thanks for the clarification. I hadn't known how to check the individual 
servers for the DNS host tables. I can't remember when I looked, but I had 
thought that capa4 dns_domains.tab had not yet gotten the two in back a couple 
weeks ago when I sent the email (I can't remember exactly when). Are these 
downloaded nightly?

I'll check later on the versions of loncapa-prerequisites and see if there was 
anything funny there. I thought everything was up to snuff, but it may not 
have been.

Thanks for the help on this. I'm sorry you're getting hit with all of us just 
as you get back from vacation. As we get this update in, hopefully things will 
calm down!

Later,
Mark
