You have said SBBS is "looking" for a packet password a few times
now, but apparantly aren't paying attention to the messages in reply to
you.

Incoming packets from your system (as well as other DB systems) *already
contain a packet password*, even though you have none configured.

Nick has a direct link with me in an othernet, so if he sends one test post
to the network, I will have the evidence he needs.

Regards,
Nick
