   Some of that information goes in your external.bbb file after the [nodes] line,   
    like so:   
      
   [nodes]   
      
    node      spass   apass   ppass   tpass gr  st pa route   
    --------- ------- ------- ------- ----- --- -- -- -------------------   
      
   1:116/18     passwrd passwrd passwrd passw XF  C  2 1:13/2 261/20   
      
      
   BBBS can read the nodelist for some entries to get the domain information to   
   dial.  If it doesn't work for a particular node, you can put that node in the   
   [node_remap] section in external.bbb:   
      
   [node_remap]   
   ,4d_nodenumber,sitename,location,sysop,phonenumber,flags   
      
   ,1:116/18.0,Neptune,Memphis_TN,Robert_Wolfe,neptune.ddns.net,300,XX,CM,IBN   
      
   The leading comma is necessary there, btw.   
      
   Take care,   
   Janis
