For ease of communication will duplicate this in email chain but for now:
Shenk's Express was setting up the power station but turned out can't find the right tools for WIN64 system. (it was purchased for a SQL server). WIN32 station on it way, should be here week of the 10th. With that, can replicate Dallas's system with no issues. Will be filebone limited until then but may get around it with ALLFIX (in progress). 50GB freespace.
Last step before peering: need one thing from Mark or Dallas, list of all echos they have peered (email or file attach). (They have some extra stuff) then plug it all in. That's easy stuff, couple of hours at most. Meantime, pulling the full load already, just dumping a good bit until setup to toss. All the standard 'Fidonet.na' was already setup here so it's edgework.
1:275/1000 filed with Mike Luko (RC13). Some 20 or so filebone areas turned on.
