Just make sure the files and directories are readable and writable by 
the interch user.  doing something like:
chown -R interch.interch .

...in the catalog directory for the catalog you're moving over should do 
the trick.

The vlink script has the location of the socket file for the interchange 
server hard-coded into it.  You should copy the vlink script over from 
an existing catalog on the server-wide setup to make sure it is pointing 
to the correct socket file.
