Roy can confirm that, as his system used to crash        MvdV> when I called him.              I think that was an earlier version, since it hasn't happened since the       time your log-in here crashed the system.               MvdV> 2) When entering a new node in the node manager it reads the        MvdV> nodelist, But it only finds the host name if it is in the system        MvdV> name field. It does not find it when the host name is a parameter        MvdV> after the protocol flag or the INA flag.              Correct.               MvdV> 3) A parameter after a protocol flag is always interpreted as a        MvdV> port number. Even if it clearly is not.               MvdV> 4) When no host name is in the system name field, it will try the        MvdV> f.n.z.fidonet.net method. This is not overridable and the domain is        MvdV> not configurable.              It can be user (sysop) written in binkp to use anything but the       fnz.fidonet.net addressing system.               MvdV> 5) When the nodelist is updated, it will not update the data in the        MvdV> node manager. This is particularly annoying when a host name or IP        MvdV> address changes. 6) It will not send an attached file when the        MvdV> crash bit of the message is set, unless the message is empty.               MvdV> 7) When evaluating the Tzy flags, it uses local time instead of        MvdV> UTC.               MvdV> 8) No IPv6              [Version update]               MvdV> I have been waiting for a decade, my patience has run out.              Same here.                      R\%/itt                      ...
