I have a UniVerse database running on a Red Hat EL3 server. If I am on the server console my software can call xpdf giving the name of a target file and it displays very nicely on the console.

Greetings all,
I have been battling with this problem for some time now, and I am not sure if I am just not seeing the obvious anymore or have made a stupid mistake, but I just can seem to get the reverse address in my network to run the right way.

rats - Rough Auditing Tool for Security
SYNOPSIS
rats [options] [file]...
DESCRIPTION
rats is a rough auditing tool for security developed by Secure Software, Inc. It is a tool for scanning C, Perl, PHP, and Python source
code and flagging common security related programming errors such as buffer overflows and TOCTOU (Time Of Check, Time Of Use) race condi-
tions. As its name implies, the tool performs only a rough analysis of source code. It will not find every error and will also find
things that are not errors. Manual inspection of your code is still necessary, but greatly aided with this tool.
When started, RATS will scan each file or each file in the directory specified on the command line and produce a report when scanning is
complete. What vulnerabilities are reported in the final report depend on the data contained in the vulnerability database or databases
that are used and the warning level in use.
For each vulnerability, the list of files and line numbers where it occured is given, followed by a brief description of the vulnerability
and suggested action.
OPTIONS -h, --help
Displays a brief usage summary and exit.
-a <fun>
Report any occurence of function 'fun' in the source file(s)
-d <filename>, --database <filename>, --db <filename>
Specifies a vulnerability database to be loaded. You may have multiple -d options and each database specified will be loaded.
-i, --input
Causes a list of function calls that were used which accept external input to be produced at the end of the vulnerability report.
-l <lang>, --language <language>
Force the specified language to be used regardless of filename extension. Currently valid language names are "c", "perl", "php" and
"python".
-r, --references
Causes references to vulnerable function calls that are not being used as calls themselves to be reported.
-w <level>, --warning <level>
Sets the warning level. Valid levels are 1, 2 or 3.
1 includes only default and high severity.
2 includes medium severity (default).
3 includes low severity vulnerabilities.
-x Causes the default vulnerability databases (which are in the installation data directory, /usr/share/rats by default) to not be
loaded.
-R, --no-recurssion
Do not recurse subdirectories when encountered.
--xml Output in XML
--html Output in HTML
--follow-symlinks
Follow symlinks and treat them like whatever they are pointing to. If the symlink points to a directory it will be descended into
unless -R is specified, if a pointing to a file, it will be treated as a file.
