I just visit the side for it. Then came on a idea on make a danish linux
bases point system by same way I made the Windows bases system, and it
should be easy to do it, with just using linux binaries in stead of .exe
files and replace \ with / in config files.
One of my thoughts was for windows/Dos version to make a start.bat file
where the user point should type in the nodes number for a net where the
bat file then used if a varial node is match a number goto :nodeX, and in
nodeX deal will it start another bat file to use config for that node and
poll node by binkd and same for hpt and htick + golded.

By you is using LANG or country could the windows and linux usb point have
a country choice for EU to use by a made country file it have all the info
of host and RC + node info to use by, and first bat or script file shows
the user nodes in his country with nets and town, so the user can just
example type in 230/150 and this number has a own number from the list.
Let say that in example Denmark is the 15 nodes and 230/150 is number 6,
and the user do not need to use all the nodes number but just the number he
is in the list there is number 6, then type the user in 6 and the system
then setting variabel node to be N6 and then will the system go to the
section there handle and work for the node, start with auto send a point
request to the node com up with a file where the coming point start with to
type in some wonted information to the node, and send this information as a
file or a netmail to node.
When the node reply back with a ok will a function in the point system next
time it been started up ask the user to type in like example -> 
Type in :
BOSS Aka
Password
Node number

Then take this information at place then in a info file and then put then
into the config files and a extra text file have the binkp hostname for
nodes and this is been read to finish the config files and make a new
config files for the system for binkd and fido config + golded.

  Take care,
            Gert
