  The change to #undef B2F  works for me.

    Yes, it's supposed to work that way.


      Does this mean the current JNOS is treating the incoming as B2F even
      when it's not and the sending station has said it's a '1' only system.


    The dosid() call is supposed to reset to the lowest common denominator.

    I will have to double check (now I'm paranoid) to make sure that is the case. I really thought it was, and I am pretty sure when I sent the '2'
    in the SID to the WinFbb system, it caused some sort of problem, even
    when I went to the lower FBB level offered to me by that system.

    I'll double check all of this. In the meantime, the 'mbox nob2f' is a
    another way around this for now. It does fix the problem, as I've had
    several users use it to get things working again.

    Stay tuned :(
