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

That is exactly how mine is, except with Stay added. Plus a call and alias and quality.
Check the telnet logs.
Check the dxspider logs.?

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??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?

Regards, Jean

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.

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

Thanks. That is exactly what I needed to know. An explanation even a caveman can understand.
