	If you are building NAS with STARTSERVER, then yes there is a bug.  
The AuStartServer() call doesn't properly handle unix addresses
(tcp/host:port) but does handle the X format (:server).  If this is the
case, I have a fix I can send you.  Meant to put it up in a dev release
last weekend but didn't have time.

	If you are not using STARTSERVER, then the problem is elsewhere
and I'll try to duplicate it.
