Hello Benny!

 I may have missed something in your reasoning. As far as I know the DNS
 domain binkp.net reflects what is in the nodelist, just put into a different
 format. I do understand, that you can ask them to add additional information,
 that is not in the nodelist.

 If I derive a list that can be used by Binkp from the nodelist, then
 the relative content, will be equal too what is in DNS binkp.net apart from
 personal addition.

 The nodelist did not contain a reference for a different port number and
 as a consequence neither did the information in binkp.net or my local list.

 BP> the days where i change binkd.cfg is gone here :)

 It is your choice to depend on the services offered by others.
 The ultimate is to dissolve your fidonode and visit a Fidonet connected BBS.

 It is my choice to generate the services myself, be it as a flat texfile
 that is included into binkd.cfg or as a local dns domain.
