I think I played around with the 5D "Uplinks" part too much.//              Hello Martin,               MF> Here's the simple warning I'd already added to the guide:               MF> ---------- 8< ---------- WARNING: You are now in the domain field, which        MF> is pre-configured to "fidonet". Although it's OK to change this to        MF> something else, DO NOT LEAVE THIS FIELD EMPTY. If this field is empty,        MF> you may encounter problems when polling your BossNode! ---------- 8<        MF> ----------               MF> All uppercase words are in bold/red.              That is excellent. Maybe put "may" in bold and red too.               So.. the 5D spec doesn't care what text goes there? Can it be "this cannot be       empty" ?              The warning is most certainly critical. I can see new user cleaning out that       field and never suspect why a connection never succeeds.                     ../|ug                            --- WinPoint Beta 5 (359.1)        * Origin: WinPoint (2:221/1.58)       SEEN-BY: 15/2 123/1970 154/10 203/0 221/1 6 360 226/17 229/107 354       SEEN-BY: 229/426 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 292/624       SEEN-BY: 292/854 310/31 317/3 322/757 342/200 393/68 396/45 423/120       SEEN-BY: 712/848 770/1 2452/250       PATH: 221/1 280/464 229/426           |
