   HERE, as promised is the "August-Solution" or the workaround/alternative     
   that does NOT require mucking about with switching the primary server     
   settings.   
      
   I have two servers:   
      
    [1] Tommi, fidonet = primary   
    [2] Alan,  fsxnet   
      
   When I wanted to freq a file from [1], I never encountered an "issue"     
   because OXP always uses the primary   
      
   When I wanted to freq a file from [2], it would always call [1]   
      
   When I wanted to freq a files from anyone else, the freq would always work     
   - because those systems were NOT listed as servers.   
      
   SO.. the solution:  If I want to freq a file from [2] (and avoid     
   reconfiguring the primary server), simply do this:   
      
   (are you ready?  here's the answer)   
      
   (I promise to stop goofing around and delaying the answer)   
      
   After creating the freq to [2], simply allow OXP to do a normal POLL to     
   the [2] server via the N A or N S commands.   
      
   Maybe a variation of the last sentence above can make its way into the OXP     
   Help system?   
      
   This strategy would probably apply nomatter how many additional servers     
   are added.  Simply allow OXP to POLL the server for which the freq is     
   intended.
