      MSGID: 1:396/45.0 fdaa9472       CHRS: IBMPC 2       Hello All.              In the sample for the NODES.CFG the line reads:              #node 5047/999 hostname;* passwword c              What does the * signify?              Is there or is there not a space before the password?       The last character, the flavour, if it is a c, does that mean that binkd will       crash whatever is in the outbound directory for that node, regardless of the       flavour of the .flo file? All mine are .hlo and the actual flavor is set       (presently) in my IRex configuration. I am thinking correctly here?              What do I do with the 2 Points I have that do not have an internet address       since they don't run a BBS type server? My NODES.CFG line for them looks like       this:              node 1:396/45.27 0.0.0.0; xxxxxxx h       node 1:396/45.28 0.0.0.0; xxxxxxx h               The only thing I could think of to put for an address was the 0.0.0.0. Is       this correct? On that same 2 lines you can see what I was asking about for       the password; is that leading space supposed to be there - it doesn't seem       right and the one known node whose password I cut-and-pasted from his entry in       the IRex configuration was met with:              -o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-CUT-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-        15 Dec 23:16:45 [2817] BEGIN, binkd/1.0.4/OS2 -C -s binkd.cfg        15 Dec 23:16:45 [2817] servmgr started       - 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2817] incoming from 74.91.126.114 (34727)       + 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2821] incoming session with ftn.bytemuseum.org       [74.91.126.114] (wrapped)       - 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2821] SYS The Byte Museum       - 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2821] ZYZ Matt Bedynek       - 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2821] LOC Dallas, TX       - 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2821] NDL 300,INA:ftn.bytemuseum.org,IBN,ICM,MO,MN,PING,XA       - 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2821] TIME Tue, 15 Dec 2020 23:17:10 -0600       - 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2821] VER binkd/1.1a-99/FreeBSD binkp/1.1       + 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2821] addr: 1:19/10@fidonet       - 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2821] OPT NDA EXTCMD CRYPT GZ BZ2       + 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2821] Remote supports asymmetric ND mode       + 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2821] Remote supports EXTCMD mode       + 15 Dec 23:17:12 [2821] Remote requests CRYPT mode       - 15 Dec 23:17:13 [2821] TRF 0 0       + 15 Dec 23:17:13 [2821] Remote has 0b of mail and 0b of files for us       ? 15 Dec 23:17:13 [2821] `CRAM-MD5-e19c07cae6a1e5e3560b70bba3b67f9e':       incorrect (wrapped)       -o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-CUT-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-              The only possible reason I can think of it that space in the NODES.CFG file       after the semicolon.              My configuration reads:              domain fidonet Q:\\fido_out 1              Not sure that that "1" is for. (?)              The tree of that directory looks like this:              +--Fido_Out        +--filehold        +--Out        +--018C002D.PNT        +--OUT.002        +--OUT.003        +--OUT.004        +--OUT.005        +--OUT.006               Will binkd see all the actual outbound directories? Or is there something       else that belongs in the outbound directory designation in the binkd.cfg file?              Any help or observations will be appreciated.              Best regards,       Marc              --- timEd/2 1.10.y2k+        * Origin: Sursum Corda!
