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 environment 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.
