Hi Janis,

   Ah, I already set up bbbs bogus a/r/w through the crontab of my bbbs user.

   Heh, now that you mention it, I found the part in the documentation of bbbsd   
   regarding "binkp" and rawd. That was the part I missed when starting the   
   daemon. Do I need to do node remapping for tcp/ip nodes? Or is this handled by   
   the entries in the compiled nodelist?   
      
   > You don't have to run all of bbbs's daemons of course, I don't run them all   
   > .   
      
   I plan to run just fidonet and maybe a few selected qwk networks. None of that   
   modern 'web' stuff everyone is going bananas about these days .   
      
   I purchased a 2+5 node license back in 2009, but at that time the first   
   incarnation of my little bbs was just finished so I never bothered to acutally   
   use bbbs. But earlier this year I got in touch with my zone coordinator and   
   got my first node address ever. And with fidonet at hand I think bbbs is the   
   better choice. And I do all of this just for fun ...    
      
   >I also run BinkD, Dimi Malof's binkp mailer on the standard binkp port (24554)   
   >I use a java program I wrote to move some people's traffic to my binkd/filebox   
   > directory for those nodes.   
      
   Got that installed and set up for backup purposes. But its not running right   
   now. See, now that I got the internal binkd server running, things looke good.   
   I was able to query aeafix on my uplink node and the reply came in as expected.   
      
   One more question: is it possible to change the polling interval of the daemon   
   or is this a static setting?   
      
   Kind regards,   
   Niels
