    On 2019 Aug 06 16:54:00, you wrote to me:

    3141 is only for OS/2 users runing SIO and its VMODEM.EXE driver
    for 8- -> RW> VMODEM-TO-VMODEM communication.

    small clarification/correction: 3141 is the IANA assigned port number
    for th -> vmodem protocol no matter what software implements the protocol or what OS i -> is used on... the vmodem protocol is a slightly modified form of the telnet -> protocol ;)

    Yeah, but I think SIO's VMODEM.EXE listens on that port by default for 8-bit VMODEM-to-VMODEM connections (using ATDT #<address) vs ATDT <address) if memory serves me correctly.

    no, IIRC, one can adjust this by editing their services file and setting the necessary port... i remember doing that years ago when i needed/wanted to run on a different port than the default...

    Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set
    them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.

    I desire to hope BinkP server is added to PXW.

    Yeah, don't think we will see that feature in PX/WINS for a while,
    sadly, what with the way things are going.

    He ties the node count to PX now so he could sell more node upgrades
    with it. Right now im just going to get the 2 node upgrade pack for the
    time being. If he added the server id add another 8 nodes. 12 is enough
    for a hobbyist.

    Ah ok. So you didn't get the 7.0 upgrade then.
