FV> Hello Marty,

MK>> The only differences between the nodes is that league10 only uses a
MK>> session password via binkp and fidonet uses session and packet
MK>> passwords.  Also, I wasn't sure what to do with the security
MK>> settings for fidonet.  It had worked at zero, but all of the fidonet
MK>> areas need at least 150, so I just gave it sysop access.

MK>> Let me know if you guys can think of anything for me to try.

FV> Remove the packet password from Irex and put it in your Fastecho mail
FV> tosser instead.

FV> I don't understand the packet password in Irex,

The packet password in Irex is for unpacking before the tosser gets to see
it. I unpack mail bundles with Irex and toss them with FE.


FV> but the packet
FV> password for Fidonet mail bundles goes in the tosser. I had this
FV> happen to me the first time I set up Irex for Fidonet. :)

FV> Regards,
