	Forgot about that. oh well, if you just need to add an
additional node.. no need to bother your uplink then.

	Umm. I really don't know perl that well. Just got done working
to switch back to my old reliable dialup ISP. had some routing issues
to fix.

	Oh, well for now I switched back to my old dialup service.
They are running on ttyS2 whereas Binkleyterm runs on ttyS1. Meaning I
can get internet stuff while I get FTN stuff via pots. Waiting to get
my newsspool. resynchronized with their server. They use Supernews
were as sbcglobal.net used a Prodigy nntp server. Its gonna be a long
night as it uses my voice line. I wanted to keep the bbs line free for
callers and fido mail. Looks like a 3 day job getting the servers in
sync.  Possibly lots of MB too. Ah well, the Bill harassers won't be
able to bother me ;)
	The service only costs $18.95 per month. VS $44 for
SBCglobal's dynamic DSL feed. Thats if you don't want to contract. My
dialup isp does not require a contract.
	Still got some mites to fix though. Expecially in the areas of
email.
