• RA to SBBS QWK Networking...

    From Martin Kazmaier@1:340/1101 to All on Fri Mar 8 22:12:00 2024
    Is anyone doing this? I've tried MKNET and SUARM, both of which send REP packets successfully to SBBS, but neither of which can actually bring in QWK packets. Any RA users out there connecting to SBBS via QWK? I can't use FTN for one of my networks because 2 networks use the same zone (Araknet and League10) and fastecho doesn't support that. IREX does, but my mail tosser
    is just as important.

    To add a little info to his question, he started having issues (I think) when I upgraded from Synchronet 3.19 to 3.20 a little over a week ago. I think he had it working before then (he will have to confirm).

    Synchronet has a lot of per-user configuration options for how QWK packets are created. I would try experimenting with them.

    I'm pretty sure it was, but I'm not positive. Geri Attricks still had me on FTN as well, so it was really hard to tell.

    I've tried from not sending anything other than the messages via zip to
    sending everything with no change in me receiving QWK packets.

    so why hasn't this furry guy got his problem fixed after all this time?

    I don't know. He needs to buy his own modem as far as I can tell...

    this has been a few months, right? is this not a priority for him?
    i'm sure some of us have some modems we could send him. my only concern is he wouldn't bother using them. I have a few sitting in my basement in a tub.
