In princile, my distribution of nodelists is equal to yours. When a node disconnects from your system and not from mine, nodelists will be forwarded to those systems. On his old system Benny disconnected from your list as apparently he had some issues that did not show when files were forwarded by me.
When Benny's system was down nodelist for his system remained in the queue. In general when file or echo distributions cannot be delivered are are not picked up for some time, I remove the queued files and remove the node from the distribution list. When nodes are up again they are free to reconnect.
Apparently Benny has reconnected to your system, but not to mine, so I am completely out of the loop.
WD> Do you have a private distribution of the shadow-nodelist? Or is it a WD> software hick-up?
No, the distribution of the shadow-nodelist is switched off and can only be switched on manually. Only if you know how, the shadow-nodelist are available by file request. It has never been used, and I have not checked the functionallity.

I think my files are removed after 4 weeks.

Probably in the order they are put in the flo file.
Anyway, if Benny wants to receive nodelist via my system, he has to connect here and disconnect from your system. I see no reason why he should.
