Helps if his uplink still has him connected (Ha.. me.. how that happened is one
of the mysteries of life Lol)

Yes, two nodes.. but what I did was write a java prog. to move some downlinks'
mail to my binkd server when I needed more than 2 nodes.. until I could
complete testing BBBS.  I still run binkd here as well "some", but not nearly
as much as I used to then. The only time I use binkD now is if a node has some
weird type problem with BBBS.. not many fit in that category.

Yes :)

Take care,
Janis
