Thanks to the many who replied. The solution was quite simple. The main
thing that I needed to do was to install wais on my gateway system and run it
via rlogin. The above errors were caused by a properly functioning gateway.

I received many more error messages than the ones above, and those were resolved
by installing wais-8-b5.1 and running ldconfig.

Thanks again.
