Re: Strugging to get COMPORT to work

That is a bit weird. Assuming you want to use the USB serial port it should be COMPORT=/dev/ttyUSB0, but if it says it is trying to open ttyAMA0 then maybe you are looking at the wrong bpq32.cfg.

Could you send me the BBS log showing the failed connect attempt?

Also it might be worth trying the latest Beta version of BPQMail.exe.

Re: No Line Feeds after Carriage Returns

Codematic Chris
 

Ahh the eternal battle of what exactly is the End Of Line.??

With windows putty make sure he applied the setting to the current session or save it to the session and disconnect / reconnect.

If all else fails create a new saved session from defaults and add the settings.

I've often had this discussion with "younger" folks and they are convinced it's broken because it's 2 commands CR LF.. its not until I explain how a typewriter works that they see the light...?

Re: No Line Feeds after Carriage Returns

I don't think my last comment was correct. Connects to TCPPORT should send CRLF, connects to FBBPORT only CR.

Re: No Line Feeds after Carriage Returns

The packet standard is to end lines with CR.?? I'm surprised that setting "Implicit Line Feed in every C/R" in Putty doesn't work, but generally it is better to use one of the versions of BPQTermTCP rather than a normal telnet client.

Re: Disconnect not recognized

It’s Pactor on HF ?using an SCS PTC-IIusb. The connect script has ATT 4, RADIO to set freq and mode, the C to call, then ELSE, PAUSE 5, and another attach, radio, and call command set. Poor propagation recently has resulted in more dropped connections after successfully connecting to the other station. But, I don’t remember having the “already connected” messages so frequently in the past.

Re: Hide Port

 

John,

Good morning, this is fantastic. Just tested it briefly.

Everything looks good so far.

My TCPKISS Port is being hidden.

Great!

Thanks

Hide Port

 

The latest Beta includes the option to hide a port from the PORTS display and the Port List in the AGW Emulator. The port is still visible via the management interface.

Add HIDE=1 to the main section of the port configuration (above any CONFIG statement).
