I also defined my public ip in sbbs.ini. Thank you for addressing all my       concerns. What a coincidence though about updating rlogin.js and the next day       my qwk failed. You are awesome. Synchronet is awesome. Have a great day sir.              telnet://ricksbbs.synchro.net:23       http://ricksbbs.synchro.net:8080       Madison,NC              ---        þ Synchronet þ Rick's BBS telnet://ricksbbs.synchro.net:23        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 4/0 80/1 88/0 90/0 93/1 103/13 705 105/81 106/201 128/187       SEEN-BY: 153/7715 154/10 110 218/700 221/1 6 226/30 227/114 229/110       SEEN-BY: 229/114 206 317 400 426 428 470 550 700 705 240/1120 266/512       SEEN-BY: 280/464 291/111 301/1 113 320/219 322/757 341/66 200 234       SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 460/58 633/280 712/848 880/1 900/0 102 106       SEEN-BY: 902/0 19 26 905/0 5019/40 5020/1042 5075/35       PATH: 103/705 301/1 341/66 902/26 229/426           |
