Well, I think that is what did it.  I had an old version of thredds  I just did 
a download of the thredds.war,  and after a lot of re-settings,  everything 
worked.

But we have found generally that forced redirects of http do not work correctly 
in a lot of languages.  I just wasted most of today on this.

Soo...,  more importantly,  what should the start of the catalog.xml look like? 
 At present I have:

> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <catalog 
> xmlns="http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/namespaces/thredds/InvCatalog/v1.0";
>          xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink";

What should it be?  The default that comes with the .war file is:

> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <catalog name="THREDDS Server Default Catalog : You must change this to fit 
> your server!"

And fair warning to all - please don't make such changes without telling people 
beforehand.  

Thanks,
