   Hello Phillip,   
      
    PJ> What is TLS and what is different about it from what we are using   
    PJ> today with the standard Binkd config?   
      
   TLS is Transport Layer Security. It is the successor to SSL. When you use a   
   secure https:// website you are using TLS. It is used for security and privacy.   
      
    PJ> If your a hub why would you force your clients to use it? Some of us   
    PJ> are using some really old operating systems.   
      
   I don't think anyone is forcing anything. You can connect to my node as always   
   on port 24554 or using TLS on port 24553.
