Hi,
?
>I don't recognise the messages - do they mean anything to you?
I'm not quite sure - only significance is that is Mark's node, the new link we were adding in.
?
>It looks like the AXIP link is somehow getting connected to the BBS. Do you see in Incoming Connect message for N2MH-8?
Where would I see this? Could there be a problem with ssid suffix routing or forwarding, or some forwarding loop even?
?
>I would be interesting to see if excluding N2MH from the BBS allows the BBS to run.
Good idea, I presume that's just uncheck bbs from users page for n2mh for a bit and see what happens
?
>Could you also send me your bpq32.cfg so I can see if I can see anything that could be a problem?
Sure - what is best way to share it all, I do not want to compromise any station's ip/dns unwittingly. Should I email you it privately?
?
>The .mes files just contain the message contents, not the To, From, Subject etc.
Noted - lesson learnt, if I do this again ever I'll also back up the metadata file. If it had lived in the dir with message files that would have been fine, did not realise it was separated.
?
I currently have the node running, no crash in last 5-10mins, but also MH for n2mh* is still stale - I wonder if it will crash once that starts communicating again (assuming Mark still has map for my node in it).

It's a bit tricky to figure due to a hard crash and being triggered by events that are not clear, but hopefully it will all get ironed out

All have been in place and working fine for some time (months/years) but the last n2mh is the new one added since yesterday and coinciding with crashes.
As you can see, all is AX-IP UDP, AX-UDP, all on same UDP port.
?
The only other thing I can think of at this time is there was a forwarding to N2MH in the forwarding rules, it was like this: c 2 n2mh-7 (port 2 is vhf direct link) - but to eliminate this I've removed this forwarding rule for now. Once stable this can be reinstated correctly as required. Not sure if these can have been causing issues?
?
I'm no expert on all of this, relatively new to it, so input from yourself as the author and other experienced packeteers is invaluable. Also, I am learning in the process :)
