Question on RELAYAPP=BBS


 

John (or anyone), is there a way to designate a user as a preferred RMS Gateway?
?
If the internet is down, and,
When you have FALLBACKTORELAY and RELAYAPP=BBS set,? BPQ could then automatically queue messages to that user and forward over HF.? (with the proper forward script, of course.)
?
?
Can this already be done automatically?? Looking at the docs---

RMS Relay Emulation

This allows BPQ to provide similar facilities to RMS Relay. If you run an RMS application with fall-back to RMS Relay set, but run RELAYAPPL=BBS instead of RMS Relay, when the Internet is down messages are diverted to the BBS, from where they can be forwarded out over any available links (Pactor, Winmor, Packet, etc) to a site that has Internet, or stored for local retrieval.

?

I don't see this happening automatically.? I have to queue the message manually, and it uses BBS protocol and not Winlink protocol.? Or will setting the Use B2 Protocol only do this?? When connecting to the RMS call of the HF station...the station connects to the CMS but BPQ does not send the user/pass to send the message, or retrieve messages.? In fact, BPQ does not recognize the coonnect and disconnect prior to RMS Trimode identifying itself and getting to the CMS prompt.

?

Maybe I don't yet understand what happens once the message is sent to the BBS.? How can something like this be done?
