   Hi! Alan,   
      
   On 10 Dec 19 13:47, you wrote to me:   
      
    AI> I got lost at sendfile.sh from the MFREQ package or I'd give you some   
    AI> feedback.. :)   
      
   There is is a FREQ server package for Linux called 'Mfreq', by Markus   
   Reschke.  In it are a couple of bonus BASH scripts that he threw in just for   
   the hell of it, called: sendfile.sh & frequest.sh to send files or make FREQ   
   requests to send via your binkD job.  In any case either script might be used   
   to start-off a binkD session. They need fine-tuning to your local Binkley   
   directory structure.  Not hard; I did it!   
      
   The guy was just shy of genius level (he also wrote an IP address extraction   
   tool from a FTN nodelist, in BASH!).  If you want Mfreq just FREQ 'mfreq' from   
   here, for the last version.  Zone 2 let him go without a fight, when he got   
   slightly pissed-off at something minor.   
      
    AI> Yes.. :) We are testing the ability to use the binkp protocol in a   
    AI> secure way. Any help, feedback or direction you can provide is   
    AI> welcome.   
      
   My Idea of a secure doover is covering the keyboard with my off-hand while I   
   peek & poke at the ivories with t'other.  :)   
      
    AI> Do you think that would be a good thing?   
      
   The all-time best would be simply a 'crash' filebox.   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
