I have one test web server running Windows Server 2008 Web Edition and the
one test client running Vista SP1 with the WCAT tool installed. The client
acts as a WCAT controller and client. A telnet to the server from the client
with a relevant GET request produces the expected content...so connection is
up and working.

The following is the output from running the WCAT from the client,

C:\Windows\system32>"C:\Program Files\wcat\wcat.wsf" -terminate -run -t
"c:\temp\scenario.txt" -f "c:\temp\settings.txt" -extended

During the execution a CMD window pops up with the following error,

Controller: TEST22
Wait for controller: true
IPv6: false
Bind Address: not specified

Just wondered if anyone can shed any light on why this may not be working or
demonstrate a way of debugging it further to find the root cause?

adding the following to the cmd command solved this for me:
