I have UI VIEW working on a Windows 7 PC.
It is has a VHF Radio and a TNC-X connected to it and it is getting a
bunch of stations from the internet and from RF.
In the APRS Server Setup I have Enable Local Server Selected.
This computer is at IP Address 192.168.61.10
I have a second computer on the same Lan with address 192.168.61.11. I
want it to get the data that is on the server. The mix of RF and
Internet data.
In the APRS Server Setup in the list of servers, I insert
192.168.61.10:1448 and then select it.
I set the APRS Server Logon Required,
I use my validation number
The logon and validation are irrelevant. The local server doesn't have the
kind of full-blown user validation that a "real" server has. You are just
sending "trash" back to the first machine. Note that the local server is
bi-directional. Stuff sent FROM the second machine will go back to the first
machine and then be forwarded to both the Internet and to RF.
I enable autoreconnect
I use the same filter as on the server "filter m/100"
Again, the local server is not an intelligent server that interprets commands
like a real APRS-IS server. It simply echoes anything and everything heard by
the machine it is running on. It doesn't do any kind of interpretation of the
packets it forwards or receives. The filter expression is falling on deaf ears.
You unavoidably get EVERYTHING the first machine hears.
After I connect to server, I only see the station of the server in the
terminal and in the station list.
I must be missing something, but I do not know why only the server
information is coming out the port, and none of the other stations from
RF or Internet that the local server can see.
I don't understand what you are saying. By "server information", do you
mean that you see only see the local server's host machine beacons/icons but
no one else?
I have run many instances of the local server on my systems with no problems.
Could you have an overly aggressive firewall configuration on the machine
running the local server that is blocking attempts by the second machine from
connecting. (You would have to poke a hole in the firewall of the first
machine for port 1448 to allow incoming connection requests from the second
machine.)
By the way, what flavors of Windows are the two machines running?
