I can not let you know beforehand what I did not know or realize until actually
became an issue. I let you know as soon as I was aware of it.

All I know is that a couple fields are definitely changed in length. So when
you send me a type 2.2 packet header, my system seems to think it's addressed
to a point system that doesn't exist. I can only guess that it's taking numbers
from another field and adding them to the original TO address. Unfortunately,
this doesn't seem to be able to be fixed or changed in hpt's configuration.

Regards,
Nick
