Hi mark!

 ml> i think that torsten is saying that you still must define a domain for
 ml> that othernet...

I had tried that previously.
Does not make a difference.

 RM>> What I am looking for is a defnode * only for fidonet, and not for
 RM>> any other domain.
 ml> you cannot... not in one config file... it is called "default node"
 ml> for a reason...

What does the "*" do.
It looks up the node in the DNS domain.
Which domain does it look up if you have not defined the default DNS domain 
(root-domain) and have not configured a DNS domain for that othernet.

Looks like a bug in binkd then.

 ml> you could, however, split your config into two... one for each FTN...
 ml> then run two instances of binkd, on different ports, and keep them
 ml> separate... then you can have defnode for fidonet only and whatever
 ml> for your othernet...

I will definitely not do that.

I will wait until that bug is fixed in binkd then.

CU, Ricsi
