No, no nodes have boxes set up.

Had problems with them a few years back that may have been the reason why some
nodes was getting echos for others so just killed them all off.

I have now got a back up system running on a Pi 3B+ that rsync with the 
primary
system so when I get a chance I will take a look at what mbout does with that
after a rsync run.

.. hmm might as well try it now .....

Allowing for a small time difference they are the same :

Primary:

-bash-4.3$ mbout sta

Both running same version and yes recompiled as primary is AMD and Pi is Arm
x32 bit for some reason despite cpu being x64 but distro (Rasbian) is only 32.
The older Pi's are all 32bit.

Pi has had a change to the primary AKA to 2:250/10 where primary is 2:250/1

and yes I did stop mbsebbs running on the Pi before running rsync then I
restarted it.

Do have different mbsebbs / mbsed scripts in /etc/init.d  | /etc/rc.d/init.d

Cannot see where it comes from though in the codebase.
