The server ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu, which serves various gretl-related purposes (e.g. databases) has just been radically reconfigured: it's now a virtual machine run by our IT department rather than a box over which I have full control. I'm afraid there may be some transitional problems. I believe everything that you'd access via a browser should be OK, but access to databases and function packages via gretl itself may not be right. I'm working on this. For Windows users: the current snapshot http://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/pub/gretl/gretl_install.exe has some modifications that should fix any access issues. -- Allin Cottrell Department of Economics Wake Forest University
