So VFIDO will not allow someone with a fidonet node number to connect to say a
scinet echo.  I'll probably just end up adding people manually to the AREAS.BBS
since its only going to be 3 or 4 systems.  Without them being able to do a
QUERY or LIST to see what is available or connected already it will be
difficult.  VFIDO was also doing some wacky things when I sent myself an
areafix message.  It takes each line and connects to that echo whether it
exists or not.  So it connects them to taglines (and adds to the areas.bbs) and
signatures, etc.  It also ignores the tear line and adds it to the areas.bbs as
well.
