Hi Michiel,

On 2024-12-20 16:52:15, you wrote to me:

 MvdV> Indeed. But... in the Z2daily it is in UTF-8.

The versions in the nodelist and z2daily look the same to me. Greek and Hebrew for instance, must be utf8. The version in the dailyutf is different though.

 WV>> "New" node in net 201:

 MvdV> JoHo can't set up a real node?

Who knows...

 WV>> Hub,40 in net 5019 got the TRACE flag added.

 MvdV> Even if it is the same system, it is theoretically possible that it does not

In theory yes.

 WV>>  A ping sent to 2:5019/400 got a trace and a ping response

 MvdV> Hmm...

 WV>> In Z4 XA flags were changed to XW which is correct. And nodes

 MvdV> I suspect that in this case "Pvt" may be euphemistic for "Down".

Could be, but we don't know.

 WV>> Remaining binkp connectivity issues in Z4:

I still get a timeout just now.

 WV>> 4:801/203 tbrasilis.ddns.net:24554  64.181.182.128  Error: Connection

This one works for me too now...


Bye, Wilfred.
