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

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