To be fair. He is trying to defend himself from DXSpider nodes that have 
not (yet) stopped sending IP addresses in their PC92 C records, because 
his software does not have the buffer space to handle a huge PC92 C 
record from nodes with 500+ users - if that PC92 C has IP addresses as 
well. Especially if a large number of those IP addresses are huge IPV6 
ones.

*DO THIS NOW:

set/var $DXProt::pc92c_ipaddr_enabled 0*

And make sure that that command is commented out in your 
/spider/scripts/startup file.

As it happens, whenever I looked, during this weekend VE7CC-1 had been 
sending PC92 A D and C records. Probably to his detriment.
