subject: Summer time.. binkd crash

Hello andrew,

On Monday April 06 2015 16:43, you wrote to me:

I too would call it a bug, but in itself it is a pretty harmless one. If only
binkd did not crash on reloading the config... :-(

Or maybe it is OS specific. I still run XP. I could do a test on my laptop,.
That has Win7.

Here I just use the -C flag.

 ac> [C:\bink]binkd.exe -vv
 ac> Binkd 1.1a-69 (Feb  3 2015 14:07:29/Win32)
 ac> Compilation flags: mingw32, perldl, https, ntlm, amiga_4d_outbound,

Same as mine.


Cheers, Michiel
