Ok, understand...

Lol..  that's good :)

Yeah, why bother changing what works already.  Any new nodes coming into my
setup get tested first without the remap if their entry looks like it will work
with bbbs reading it from the nodelist, as I mentioned.

ouchey :)  Glad you found the problem :)

Take care,
Janis
