Hello everybody!

I am having an issue connecting to an IP address. For some odd-ball reason my 
OS/2 system cannot resolve applewoodbbs.linkpc.com, so I'm using its actual IP 
address in my binkd.cfg file like so:

node 2:25/21@fidonet 82.30.228.138:24555

What comes back is:

+ 18 Mar 09:09:01 [33615] call to 2:25/21@fidonet
+ 18 Mar 09:09:01 [33615] getaddrinfo failed: hostname nor servname provided, 
Any ideas on how to get around this issue?  I'm sure I'm configuring this 
wrong.
