I've brought other nodes online in a similar fashion, but that was with a Windows machine. The OS change hadn't even occurred to me because CrossOver is working so well with some of my other favorites like Putty and WinSCP. I'll drag out a an old Windows laptop and test this theory tonight. </div><div><br></div><div>John<br><br>Sent from my iPhone</div><div><br>On Jun 30, 2014, at 1:15 PM, "Bill WD9EQD" <<a href="mailto:wd9eqd@gmail.com">wd9eqd@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 15 (filtered medium)"><!--[if !mso]><style>v\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);}
