Ok Dirk
I did a test after having configured  on0dxk-5 as a PMS in bbs on0ck.
Still the same problem.
The bbs waits to proceed until  the PMS reply's with his identifier fe [PMS-001-$]
Then the bbs replys with  >
The pms has to reply this with f>
Then de forward starts ( sb on6hh @ on0dxk  etc )
How to have spider done this ??
Who can help ,Ian ?? ,sysops  GB7MBC  GB7BAA ??
