Thanks Chuck
I forgot about not being able to go above -15. My thoughts were to just use 
the same number for the ports and the port number. IE
port 3 has the ssid of -13 port 4 is -14. I was just thinking that looking 
at the config files this would make it easier to remember what is going to 
what port!!

I was just starting to set up the axip and thought I had octothorped it 
out..... It's things like this that I keep missing when I try and do so 
much at the same time...

Here is what I get right now when I log in

You have mail.

W4AKH-8 (Commands = ?) :


The problem with the two ports not talking was all Murphy's fault!!
In the rsports file when we started to configure it we had the callsign it 
there instead of the nnx. I went through each file and this was one of the 
last ones to look at to find it. Once I changed from call to nnx I was able 
to forward from the bbs on port 4 out the switch on port 3 to the n4xeo 
fpac box at the EOC. I still need to get the files changed around there to 
add this new fpac box to the network.
I'll have to get with John on adding the info to the other switches so they 
can connect to me.
