Re: LuaSocket problem

["Greg Ludwig" <greg@...>]

Hi, I don't know anything about LuaSocket, but I did notice the
first line of your script is

#!/usr/loca/bin/lua

perhaps it should be

#!/usr/local/bin/lua

or this might just be a typo in your post, or maybe you
really do have a "/usr/loca" directory...
