 MV> What is the name of you internet provider?

        EPB

 MV>  GM> Both answer on 24554 from where I can test, but that is from inside
 MV>  GM> my own network, so I would rather have your result than mine.

 MV> Indeed. Wrong firewall settings often are a cause of failed connects. But
 MV> you got it right!

        I requested to have my nodelist corrected.

 MV>  GM> Would you mind trying once more against call.rofbbs.com?

 MV> See above.

 MV>  GM> While looking into this I also found my FidoNet nodelist entry is

 MV> I saw that and it confused me...

 MV>  GM> which no longer resolves at all, plus an old location and phone

 MV>  GM> and no IPV6 flag.

 MV> There is no such thing as in IPv6 flag. It is the AAAA record associated

 MV>  GM> That would explain any node failing to reach me from the nodelist. I

 MV> OK. So until then I will list you as a "prospective Member".  You are

        That is the plan!!
