I logged in to both boxes and set the TUNNELTYPE:IP, (it was set to PPP on meshbox1 and did not exist on meshbox2)

I can now do a remotemanagement from meshbox2 and I see:

If I do the same from meshbox1 I see:

Does that look ok? If I leave it a few mins and look at the wiana pages I still see Attention: 7 remote operations scheduled for meshbox1? However the pending operations for meshbox2 seem to have worked?
