RC>   Wonder if that "Encryption required" is a setting on his end?

Apparently.  His end is sending an M_ERR frame, which indicates a fatal error.
Either his end is setup to require encrypted sessions, or there is some sort of
bug in his software.

RC> Connections to do work if I connect to him, after all...

I'm leaning toward a bug in BinkIT.  If he had explicitly enabled an encryption
requirement, you would think it would be required for both inbound and outbound
sessions.

I imagine I will need to setup a test node with BinkIT to be sure.
