Hello Pavel,

Possible, but here is more:

Binkd occasinally crashes when it is started with the -C option and the config
file changes. In my setup the node statements are not in binkd's main config
but in an include file. When I change that include file, it sometimes crashes.
There is nothing to be seen in the logs, it just exits. Sometimes with a
windows box saying an error was encountered. 
Here is the version info:

D:\FIDO\BINKD>binkd -vv
Binkd 1.1a-68 (Dec 16 2014 15:14:42/Win32)
Compilation flags: mingw32, perldl, https, ntlm, amiga_4d_outbound, bwlim,
ipv6.
Facilities: fts5004 ipv6

Version *-68 has the same problem.


Cheers, Michiel
