[Dxspider-support] SH/LOCKOUT question

[Dirk Koopman]

With the PC92 protocol that DXSpider uses for gathering routing 
information, all new users and nodes on the cluster that are 
"discovered" by this means are stored in the users file. For users it 
also gathers and stores information like name, qth, qra etc that are 
broadcast using PC41s, it also stores the last few IP addresses they 
used. For new nodes it stores any version and build information and does 
a set/lockout (automatically) on that new node so that they have ask 
you, should they wish to have a direct connection. When you wish to 
allow them, the set/spider <node call> command both sets them up as a 
DXSpider node AND unlocks them at the same time.

Hope that helps.

Dirk G1TLH.
