numeric subtype for wwivnet sub reverts to subtype 0

[wwiv]

Build:1432 Operating System:Linux

What Happened: When adding a new WWIVnet sub with a numeric subtype, the subtype is not getting set properly and it reverts to subtype 0 and thinks the sub is local.

What was expected: using a numeric subtype should work the same as an alpha subtype

Can you provide a screenshot?

It's hard to say that this is an issue with all numeric subtypes since there is only  one in the entire environment, which makes testing other numbers tough.  That said, it might be a good time to drop numeric subtypes and go with all alphanumeric.  There's really no reason not to.

If you set the net info, and do NOT auto-request to subscribe, the sub sets up properly. If you attempt to auto-add, the type gets borked.
