   (cp:execute-command "create namespace object host DAZ :locally yes :property list
      (:SERVICE ((:LOGIN :TCP :TELNET) (:FILE :TCP :TCP-FTP))
	:CONSOLE-LOCATION '("RRC" "4A-820" "Shayne's Office")
	:ADDRESS ((#<TCP:INTERNET-NETWORK INTERNET 12201677> "128.96.139.2"))
	:SYSTEM-TYPE :UNIX42 :MACHINE-TYPE :SUN-3/260 :SITE #<NETI:SITE CTT 12201450>))")

   the problem seems to be that this property list, which i got by sending
   the host on the namespace server a :property-list message seems to be
   parsed in differently than it's printed out.  Has anyone used the create
   namespace command like this successfully?

I haven't tried it, but I'll bet that the problem with the above form
is that it includes #<...> objects, which are not readable.  You'll
have to use #.(neti:local-network-of-type :internet) instead of
#<TCP:INTERNET-NETWORK...> and #.(send net:*local-host* :site) instead
of #<NETI:SITE...> (I'm not sure if I got the variable right in the
last one, but it's something like that).
