with a fresh recompile of the nelns and game specific services we first find 
that all the services want some new variables including XWinParam and SId.  We 
discovered the syntax of XWinParam and 
it's friends, and made an educated guess on the others.  Here is a sample of 
our cfg which I'm guessing is correct:

Rec = "no";
NSHost = "63.205.226.188";
NSPort = 50000;
BasePort = 51000;

XWinParam = 600;
YWinParam = 0;
WWinParam = 600;
HWinParam = 300;

SId = "NS";

At any rate this was enough to dispel the warnings.  When we try to log in with 
a freshly recompiled client we get as far as choosing a shard before we are 
informed that there is no frontend service.  
the frontend service's logs seem to indicate a normal connection.


Keep up the great work!
