All sysops in the NET 4 nodelist have now been sent a netmail regarding the upcoming changes. For completeness I am posting that netmail here also.

Hi there

This note if to let you know that the NET 4 fsxNet HUB is shifting to a new
host at the end of this month. 

Many thanks to Dan Richter for hosting and being NET 4 HUB admin for many
years. It's been very much appreciated.

As a NET 4 node please ensure you use the following domain name and port
set when you poll the NET 4 HUB (21:4/100)

net4.fsxnet.nz:24560

On 31 March (New Zealand time) I will be updating the DNS records to point
to a new IP address for the new system hosting the NET 4 HUB.

Your BinkD, Areafix, Filefix passwords etc. will remain unchanged and should
work as they currently do.

After the change over has occurred the old HUB will be shutdown.

If you have any questions please feel free to email me avon@bbs.nz

Best, Paul aka Avon
