Re: New Windows LinBPQ.exe

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

No, LinBPQ.exe is a windows version of linBPQ ie a single program with chat and mail built in and no GUI.

Hi John,

In your beta directory is the LinBPQ.EXE file the same functionality as BPQ32.EXE in the official distribution installer? If so, is it safe to rename to BPQ32.EXE, or just start bpq32 with LinBPQ.EXE moving forward?

Thanks,

Re: Looking for bulletin and mail forwarding partners

 

I recommend partnering with either one of these two so that personal messages addressed to you can be forwarded to the BBS's below and not reach a dead end. They can handle bulletins also.

W0ARP W0ARP.# Wayne 80138 Parker, CO

KC0GIS KC0GIS.#NCO.CO.USA.NOAM Ross 80015 Centennial, CO USA

It was those extra two digits that caused the issue. Thank you.

Looks like it is now correct, whatever you did. You and your BPQ are now in CO.

Now if you want a link to TX you can put in the MAP lines below:

?; N5MDT Mark Taylor MDTAYLORLRIM@... 832-7**-**41
? ?MAP N5MDT-13 n5mdt.ham-radio-op.net UDP 10093 B

I'll add yours when/if I see your connection attempts.

You might need to change your location in your bpq32.cfg file.? I still see you in FL, but the map may be a bit behind.

Re: DXSpider and LinBPQ

 

it depends on if you want to connect to dxspider or host a dxspider server.

connecting to an existing host is just using telnet from bpq to the host.

hosting, on the other hand, is a locally installed and maintained server. (that you could also telnet to from bpq).
similar to installing, setting up, maintaining the bpq program.

both options would 'look' the same from the client side terminal program.

good luck

Re: DXSpider and LinBPQ

 

This intrigues me because I am always trying to enhance our local system. ?I am not a DX chaser so only know of DX Spider from the wiki. Is this really as easy as adding a line to the BPQ applications or do I need install some software?

I¡¯m currently sysop for a BPQ packet system operating on a PI 4. I can probably figure out what to install and how to install it but want to avoid spinning my wheels.

Hi Steve,

??? Telnet log do not say much:

23/02/2025 15:58:04 10 Outward Connect to 127.0.0.1? Port 9000
23/02/2025 15:58:04 10 Disconnected. Bytes Sent = 0 Bytes Received 7

and nothing the the BBS Log

I added call, alias and quality,

APPLICATION 4,DXC,ATT 2 127.0.0.1 9000 TELNET,VE2PKT-9,DXCPKT,254

now if I try to connect ve2pkt-9 I get:

?E2PKT-4:PKTXRP} Connected to VE2PKT-9??????????????????????????????????????????
*** Connected to DXC??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?
login:????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?
*** DISCONNECTED?

I wonder if it's not my linux... I am running Ubuntu


I will keep digging.

Yes, it just needs a telnet application to the ip / tcp port that dxspider uses.
