Hi Jeff -

I added the CONVERSION_REQUIRED define (along with MULTINET and
"caNetAddrSock") to my cxx command and the example server now works 
great and data looks good.  And of course, /float=d_float just like
for the client.  This solution can be made permanent as far as I'm 
concerned.  Thanks,

Stephanie
