What a lot of us do is run a main node, and then any aditional system is
run as a point. It then saves a lot of issues.

ie:
1. Taking down the point
2. If the sysop only wants to test.
3. Taking Avon's time, but adding or removing nodes.
4. Testing a different software setup.
5. Firewall changes...
