I have no way to check what        is in your binkd.conf for that node,               I expect Servname to be the service port (eg 24554) and the socket type        either for ipv4 or ipv6.               I tried 3:633/280 with an arbitrary port number, that resulted in        connection refused.               TL> + 03 Jul 14:27:02 [16166] holding 21:1/100@fsxnet (2019/07/03        TL> 14:37:02)        TL> 03 Jul 14:27:02 [16166] unlinked `/sbbs/binkd/fsxnet.015/00010064.csy'        TL> 03 Jul 14:27:02 [16166] bsy_remove_all: done        TL> 03 Jul 14:27:02 [16069] rc(16166)=0               TL> I'm not sure what "Servname not supported for..." means.
