Timothy,
Below you will find a transaction log generated by the
yaz-client while searching the LC Online Catalog. I have
access to YAZ on a Unix server and the Windows version on my
PC. I don't know what version you have downloaded from
Index Data.
http://www.indexdata.dk/
yaz/
When using yaz-client in Unix, the initial command is
slightly
different:
----------------------------------------------------------
$ yaz-client z3950.loc.gov:7090/voyager
Connecting...OK.
Sent initrequest.
Connection accepted by v3 target.

Version: 2003.1.1/1.2.1.1
Options: search present
Elapsed: 0.104680
----------------------------------------------------------
The following log was generated with Windows version of YAZ.
(There were no hits with ISBN "0521299224" so I
substituted
"0375824898" -- a nice small record.)
