ok, both problems solved!

as far as me not getting NXPortFromName() to work as documented, i received
email from dave moore at next, who said that it was broken and should be fixed
in the next release.

and /LocalApps is now part of my workspace manager search path.  i still don't
understand why it is not searched automagically though, since i didn't have to
mess with the defaults on the root account for owner Workspace yet it searches
/LocalApps.  thanks scott.  ah, well, quickfix hacks beat migraines any day.
