My system didn't report a config change:

    08 Mar 01:34:05 [30690] Creating toss-now
    08 Mar 01:34:05 [3347] rc(30690)=0
    - 08 Mar 03:00:32 [3347] incoming from 196-38-245-190.fibertel.com.ar

No config change noted, just the time stamp in the log changed. This is the
linux version as below:

Binkd 1.0a-396 (Oct  3 2010 02:31:53/Linux) Compilation flags: gcc, zlib,
bzlib2.

Take care,
Janis
