    RW> Yes, and that was the version that crashed here.   
      
   I have a beta running on my point system. Haven't  seen that one crash, but   
   then again it is not used for incoming calls.   
      
    MvdV>> It still occasionally crashes on this side. I use the following

    RW> That's probably a nice workaround for you. However, 'Choice' isn't

   Same for XT, so I will have to find an alternative if end when I make the   
   plunge..   
      
    MvdV>> I have also created a work around for that, but it is less of

    MvdV>> more often...   
      
    RW> Starting with the August event of 2011, I began to add new nodes to   
    RW> Rex node-manager as they came online here. I'm also attempting to get   
    RW> Fidonet back to San Antonio and have added a new node to net387 just a   
    RW> few weeks ago. There's an older node in San Marcos, just 14 miles up   
    RW> the road from here that is listed in the Austin network, but he lives   
    RW> closer to me.   
      
   Good.   
      
    MvdV>> With the next major system upgrade I will switch to binkd I   
    MvdV>> think.   
      
    RW> The same here...maybe D'B if it can quote properly by the time I get   
    RW> to use it.   
      
   D'Bridge seems to be doing fine these days, but I am not found of these "all   
   in one" solutions.   
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
