[Koha] Z39.50 authority server anyone?

[Rubeno Fernández]

Hello, I'm trying to set up my Koha as a Z39.50 server. So far I can serve 
biblio data, but can't serve authorities.
Has anybody achieved a working configuration?

This is what yaz-client reports:
yaz-client tcp:biblioteko.esperanto.cat:9999
Connecting...OK.
Sent initrequest.
Connection accepted by v3 target.

Diagnostic message(s) from database:

So, the biblio database is served, but the authority database is unavailable.

To activate the server, I uncommented all the relevant parts of the file /etc/
koha/sites/esperanto/koha-conf.xml:

<!-- Uncomment the following entry if you want to run the public Z39.50 
server.
    Also uncomment the <server> and <serverinfo> sections for id 
'publicserver'
    under PUBLICSERVER'S BIBLIOGRAPHIC RECORDS title-->

<listen id="publicserver" >tcp:@:9999</listen>

However, if you uncomment that aforementioned section, you see it only relates 
to bibliographic records:

<!-- PUBLICSERVER'S BIBLIOGRAPHIC RECORDS -->
<!-- This can be used to set up a public Z39.50/SRU server. -->

<server id="publicserver"  listenref="publicserver">
    <directory>/var/lib/koha/esperanto/biblios</directory>
    <config>/etc/koha/sites/esperanto/zebra-biblios-dom.cfg</config>
    <cql2rpn>/etc/koha/zebradb/pqf.properties</cql2rpn>

</serverinfo>

So, do I need a similar 'server' and 'serverinfo' section for authorities? In 
that case, should I also create a 'listen' entry with a different port? What's 
your configuration? Has anybody got an authority server running?
