[Dxspider-support] Node verification

[Anthony (N2KI)]

The telnet portion of N1MM is just that, a telnet window.  So when you
connect to a node you can enter your user name and password accordingly and
it even saves it for future use.  At least my version logs me into my node
and others with username and password.  SO no issue with N1MM as far as I
can see.
