Hi! Joacim,

In a message to Wilfred Van Velzen you wrote:

I'm currently working up a node on this desktop running Xubuntu (14.04.3 LTS 
presently).  It's based on a successful formula that has been working in a 
VirtualBox VM for the last five years, running an old Puppy Linux that cannot 
be upgraded.  Hence the move to Xubuntu.

Anyhow, for the extraction of IP information from nodelists I use a beautiful 
little tool from Markus Reschke (2:240/1661) called nl2binkd.  It's actually a 
bash script so it doesn't need any external binaries.  It's easy to get the 
hang of, is its use is described by running the script without any parameters.  
It's FREQ-able from here or from Markus's node simply by that name, NL2BINKD.

Cheers,
Paul.
