Stefan,

Thanks for your mail. Here's my results:

I just tested it from the VCU domain (running 2.4.2):
As author ... ok
As CC ... ok

Tested from the bccc domain (educog server):
As author ... ok
As DC ... ok
As CC ... _not_ ok              <------- !!!!!!!!!!!!!
As student ... _not_ ok        <------- !!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, it seems like something weird is happening on the educog server. Would
it be possible for someone else on the educog server to view this problem as
CC to see if it is functioning on submission:

/res/vcu/jmsullivan/math/poly_rational_functions/poly_frm_polyfromzeros01.problem

Thanks,
Jay
