NAME
       getcookie - get a cookie from the DSBL server for batch testing

SYNOPSIS
       getcookie

DESCRIPTION
       getcookie  attempts  to retrieve a cookie from the DSBL server and writes it to stdout. If the retrieved cookie value is put into the envi-
       ronment variable DSBL_COOKIE, all of the test programs in the DSBL test suite will use that cookie value rather than attempting to retrieve
       a cookie themselves, hence saving time and bandwidth when a batch of tests is to be run.
