Hello Phoobar,

A couple comments on binkd.

 Ph>   11 Jun 22:35:26 [135] BEGIN, binkd/1.1a-99/OS2 binkd.cfg

Binkd has seen quite a few changes recently and it is now upto 1.1a-111. I can send you this version if you like.

I run binkd like this..

/usr/local/sbin/binkd -DC /usr/local/etc/binkd.conf

The -D causes binkd to daemonize. You may not want that until it is working for you. When it's daemonized it runs in the background unseen. You have to read the log file to see what it is doing. The -C causes binkd to reload the config whenever you change the binkd.cfg or any included config files so you don't have to stop and start binkd if you make changes to the config. It'll just keep on working in the background and you won't have to worry about it.

I believe I ran binkd this way on OS/2 back in time a bit.

Looking at the nodelist, a node line like this I think will work for you.. just enter your PASSWORD.

node 21:2/100@fsxnet error404bbs.ddns.net:24555 PASSWORD c

 Ttyl :-),
