Know what? I am pretty sure you are blowing smoke. Let's assume the
following is a test of competence, programmer to programmer like. 

I've got a Unix based platform, running a bridge to a Win95 Gate. Now,
setting within the Unix base is a liddly ditty I want to run on Win95.
Let's call this Ditty1. Now, Ditty1 can't run on Win95 because it is a
Unix native. Although the bridge allows programs from the Win95 gate
to interact with Ditty1 (assuming something such as CGI), it will not
allow a Unix Native to run directly from the Win95 PC. 

Then there is Ditty2, which sets in the Win95 PC and can access
Ditty1. Ditty2 is not a Win95 Native, is written in C++, and runs as a
frontend to the Unix gate. 

Ditty3 is the bridge, setting just inside the gate on the Unix
platform. All data from the gate must past through here before
reaching Ditty1, and all data from Ditty1 must pass through here
before going through the gate.

Now, currently there have been some problems with Ditty2 not being
able to locate Ditt1. At first, Man A thought that the code could have
been corrupted, but after weeks of searching, this was not the case.
Man B thought that it could be a problem with either Ditty1s or
Ditty2s parity assignments, but again, checking Ditty3 proved this to
be wrong.

 Said Man B, "It has always worked before, and nothing has changed. So
what can it possibly be?"

"Hmmmm...." Thought Man A. 

So, they breaked for lunch (their first meal in weeks). At the
resteruant, the waitress apprached, and Man A said "I would like the
breakfast bar, please."

"I'm sorry," Said the waitress, "It's after 11, we only serve lunch
now."

At that moment, Man A stood up, and with a sudden flash of
understanding, said "I've got it! I know what's wrong!"

"Do tell," Said Man B.

What was Man As answer?
