Epic with DocBook?

[Dennis Grace <dgrace@us.ibm.com>]

Greetings all,

I'm more than a little rusty with DocBook SGML processing. Can anyone help
with this? Will DocBook 4.1 SGML run on Epic 5.1, or should I just tell
this gent to move to another method (he's running Windows).

A little whine can lead to next steps [wish it was wine instead].

Ok, so I downloaded the 4.1 schema/dtd for sgml from
http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/sgml/4.1/txtindex.html. I
opened our spec, pointed it to where I had the dtd saved, and got
the following dtd compile error, suggestions? Can firewalls screw
things up?
