   My understanding is that it is hard-coded to read the nodelist and use the   
   info found there to write the z.n. etc..

   The one in reference was used as a DNS lookup - when 'fidonet.net' was   
   still around. It has since died and there's a BinkD.* DNS look up that has   
   taken it's place.

   In your node manager. Choose 'send to a BinkD' system and then enter the   
   configure node that appears under that, the first line will already have   
   the z.n. lookup entered by Irex.

   It will. i.e. my lone-star.dyndns.org can and should used to replace that   
   z.n. listing that Irex will put there...
