Using net/999 for all applicants       is a basic flow because it will go wrong when there are two applicants at the       same time. That flaw has always been there but in the POTS age it was very       rare that two application windows overlapped and applicants did not poll every       few minutes for the responce to an application.              It is not really binkd related and I have no instant solution...                     Cheers, Michiel       --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: http://www.vlist.eu (2:280/5555)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 30/0 80/1 90/1 105/81 114/709 120/340 123/131 129/305       SEEN-BY: 154/10 203/0 221/1 6 226/30 227/114 229/101 200 424 426 550       SEEN-BY: 229/664 700 720 1016 1017 240/1120 5832 249/109 206 307 317       SEEN-BY: 261/38 280/464 5003 5555 282/1038 292/854 301/0 1 101 103       SEEN-BY: 301/113 123 812 322/757 341/66 342/200 633/280 712/848 5019/40       SEEN-BY: 5020/1042 5053/58 5058/104       PATH: 280/5555 301/1 229/426           |
