THat's as I thought as well, as long as the particulars for
that connection scheme are set up properly in that node's
config you're golden.

DOn't think it can do that.  DOnt' know how folks handle
situations where they connect with somebody who's got ip and pots both.

IMportant thing with multinode binkleys and your tosser,
i.e. squish in my case, would be to properly configure the
flags directory, and make sure everything put its busy flags in the appropriate 
place.

YEp, wonderd how long you archived.  I do it by number of
messages in most echoes, just out of habit from the old
days, but some are by days.

Bob Juge would have been your guy for that as he was doing
it.  Also the other MR. LEwis might be of some assistance to SEan in this 
regard.  THink he's running bt.

           Richard
