- My machine is not a domain.. In order for my feed at infoserv to work,
- the node must be carlos, not "infoserv.com" or "carlos.infoserv.com".
- All my PC does is grab a nightly UUCP feed through waffle's UUCICO
- to and from infoserv's 14.4 node.

- I am only a user at infoserv. They have given me the option to register
- me and my machine in the .US or normal NIC domains, but I'll see about
- that in the future.

- Helldiver's author has acknowledged it as a "bug". All setups aren't
- the same, but I appreciate your input though..
