[SPT/CWIS] Keep getting "This page cannot be found" when adding a record.

[David W. Williams]

Things are becoming clearer.

Yes, I'm using two different interfaces to access different sets of 
metadata records in a single MySQL database. I know about symbolic 
links, but I'm still a little confused about what I'm linking to where. 
Specifically, what would the link in SPTUI-MyInterface/MetaTool be named?
