You don't need to configure a pkt-password in your binkd config unless you are 
also using the 'share' option in your binkd.conf. And I very much doubt you 
are. The pkt-password in normally set (or not if not specified) by your tosser.

And don't specify the default port.

And you also don't need to specify the 'flavour' ("i"), unless you are using a 
filebox outbound directory for this node, which you haven't configured in this 
line, so leave it out.

So the 'node' line would become:

  node 2:1/1@network host_address password



Bye, Wilfred.
