I tried this and got things going nicely. Thank you. However, in every game so
far, at some point CM9K stops playing when it does not recognize a move from the
other PC. I tried various opponents (Tiger 15, Fritz 8, etc.) and the game
starts and continues for several moves (beyond the book on both sides), and
suddenly another move (there is nothing special about the move itself - could be
castling, pawn advance, capture, etc.) is no longer picked up by CM9K. It just
continues to wait for the opponent to move and there is nothing I can do but
stop the game.

Any suggestions?  Thank you,

PK
