Hello Bj”rn!

I started with the binkd.cfg that came with FidoIP and like you made some
changes.

I have the domain keyword and aliases defined along with my address line.
Everything works until I include the binkd.txt nodelist file. Instead of
calling my uplink it tries to call my own system. Once I remove the file
include everything works fine. Very strange.

Interesting, do you know where I can find the script online?

Thanks,

Gary

... What do you want to be when you grow up? I'm looking for ideas.
