Abort Command


 

Is there a command to abort a weak connection as a SYSOP running LinBPQ?


 

In the Driver Window of a Vara TNC there is an Abort Action, but not in Pactor.? I don't know about Packet, probably not.

The BBS Status display also allows you to abort a BBS connection but there is no general way to abort a connection to the node.

I have on a few occasions used the sysop stopport command to abort a connection. The obvious downside is that it will abort ALL active connections on the port if there happen to be more than the one intended.

Rich, what is that command? stopport and number? So like ¡°stopport 4¡±?

Yes just like your example. This tells bpq to close that port.

After the active session(s) drop then do a "startport n" to re-open the port.

Note you must have sysop status to issue these.
