Hello all,
	I've just started using jigsaw, and I'm trying to use some legacy cgi 
applications until I can rewrite them in Java. One in particular requires 
the REMOTE_HOST environment variable to be set. I noticed  that this did 
not appear to be the case, and while looking through the src, found the 
offending line:

CgiResource.java, line 240:

//	addEnv ("REMOTE_HOST", , env) ;

Does anyone know why this would be commented out? Does anyone know if the 
following line, which is similar the other code, might work to accomplish 
what I want?

	addEnv ("REMOTE_HOST", request.getClient().getHostName(), env) ;

I need to find a way to set this variable (on Win95, if it matters) in 
order to use Jigsaw (which I really want to do)
