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

Hope that helps.<br>
