(Sorry, for multiple posting, I am just learning gnus. I mistakenly
sent this to gnu.emacs.gnus first.)

Hello,

I am trying to move my PC emacs use (using NT) to a laptop running
Win98. I have been using the gnuserv package on my NT/PC and it works
like a charm. Has anyone successfully gotten gnuserv to work on
Win98? When I start emacs, I get a message that it cannot open
load-file gnuserv.

My .emacs has the following gnuserv relevant commands:
(require 'gnuserv)
(gnuserv start)

If the gnuserv package doesn't work under Win98, could I compile it
with the cygnus tools on the laptop? I am not a programmer, but if
there wasn't much to change, I could try.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Sounds like either "gnuserv.elc" isn't in your load-path variable or
"gnuclient.exe" not in your PATH environment variable.

Thanks. It was gnuserv.el.

I have it working under Windows '95.

That probably means gnuserv.el is not in one of the
directories in your load-path. Try this:
M-x customize-variable
load-path

Make sure the directory containing gnuserv.el is there.
