Dale. I want to thank you for the extra work you have done. This proves Paul's
original remark. Can we (this goes out to the people that have
concurrent direct connections with him) contact him and give him a good link to
a better dns updater client?

I believe as a ZC, you should be able to be contacted directly at any time,
from anyone. If this belief isn't any good, then I'll stop in my tracks. Some
people here are just trying to make sure Fidonet sticks to it's guns and keeps
chugging along the way it should. Dead nodes, and uncontactable nodes are not
an option (mainly in positions like this).

Regards,
Nick
