       tk>> What would be the easiest way to make FD to call to a        tk>> non-standard telnet port with vmodem/sio on os/2 system?        tk>> Vmodem/SIO needs the port number after the host name, separated        tk>> by _space_. I cannot find a correct format of PHONE statement in        tk>> FDNODE.CTL. The space character seems to be the problem now.               tk>> I can make a private nodelist with phone entry that contains the        tk>> space character. That way FD dials out ok. But that is not very        tk>> easy way. :)               JH> If you cannot get this to work, let me know and I'll compile a        JH> version which translates a given character (% perhaps) to spaces.              That would be the easiest way, or course. :)               JH> Many functions in FD exist and/or behave the way they do for a        JH> reason. If you read the documentation from top to bottom (I'm not        JH> asking you to :)), you'll see there are a *lot* of flexibility and        JH> configuration options. That is not to say that things are not        JH> missing.              Support for INA flags would be also nice. In that case FD could dial IP nodes       without any special configuration.               JH> Things are missing. And they will be addressed. That is why I'm here.              :D              'Tommi              ---        * Origin: * rbb.fidonet.fi * (2:221/360)    |
