Re: One user can send a message the other cannot.

 

Hi John,
I was hoping to have two traces where my BBS sent a good and a failed message for comparison. Unfortunately, the second trace was longer as GB7CIP sent me a message making them not quite comparable. You can ignore, as you are a trace reading expert! :-)
?
Ironically, it was his auto-reply system replying to the first (good) message I sent.

GB7CIP is rejecting the message:

I'm not familiar with FBB, but I suspect it is because WORPIN in not at valid callsign

Re: One user can send a message the other cannot.

 

Is it possible in BPQ (or FBB which is what the destination BBS GB7CIP is using) there is an issue with no numeric in the call sign?
I know that the destination has a similar responder testing arrangement, he uses the account name "ping" (no numeric) in full ping@gb7cip.#32.gbr.euro
His works fine with me.
Re: Not all links show on web page

Would it be possible to get a packet trace of a truncated page? I use WIreshark.

Sample LinBPQ Configuration

 

Good Evening All,
?
I have been fighting to get a simple UHF node up in my town that would work as a RMS and Chat node. I wanted to share this example config file for any newcomers to this software (like myself) to have a easy way to get started, and hopefully expand onto what is in this basic setup. Now that I have something simple built, time to get my friends to pick up some TNC's ?

No clue why it does that. Perhaps a refresh plus a timing thing, and due to the page not being live or automatically refreshed.

Re: BPQ is defaulting to IPv4 not IPv6

 

Yes, outgoing TCP connects only support IPv4. IPV6=1 only affects how incoming connects work.

I tested outgoing telnet from the BPQ node to a tcp port what can only handle IPv6 as I have a 6tunnel for IPv6 to Xnet, what is a IPv4 only program.
6tunnel converts here a IPv6 input at tcp port 24 to IPv4 at tcp port 23 what connects to Xnet.

linux.ve3mch.ampr.org resolves both to an IPv4 and IPV6 address. I tested this from the latest stable BPQ version as well as from the latest beta version
and both are failing with outgoing telnet over IPv6. Both IPv4 and IPv6 are enabled for the telnet port in BPQ with,

? IPV6=1
? IPV4=1

From the linux shell to proof that IPv6 really works at port 24

What I see with forwarding to hostnames who resolves to both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses BPQ defaults to IPv4 forwarding.
I believe that this was not always the case with older releases and that BPQ was using the Linux / Windows convention, that is try IPv6 first
and when not possible fall back to IPv6 -

Re: BPQ is defaulting to IPv4 not IPv6

 

The issue with BPQ seems to be not the 'defaulting to IPv4' but that outgoing telnet to IPv6 fails to connect at all both in the latest stable and beta versions and
this while IPv4 and IPv6 are both enabled for the telnet port, see below.

Not all links show on web page

 

This issue has been here awhile, but anytime one or more links are down, the links web page shows only one or two available links out of the six I have. ?Right now it shows two active links, but showing links on the node terminal, shows five active links. ?Does this happen for others?
Current running pilinbpq 6.0.24.71 but the issue has been there for at least 6.0.24.30
