  • Issue with outboxes

    From Mike Powell@1:2320/105 to All on Thu Dec 21 14:45:45 2023
    I have two nodes set up with the outbox option on:

    node 1:229/426@fidonet darkrealms.ca:24554 mypassword i /path/to/outbox
    node 21:1/10@fsxnet agency.bbs.nz:24557 mypassword i /path/to/outbox

    When binkd attempts a call out, it does not use the binkd port included in the address in the config:

    14:39 [14990] BEGIN, binkd/1.1a-99/Linux -C /sbbs/binkd.cfg
    14:39 [14990] servmgr started
    - 14:39 [14990] servmgr listen on *:24556
    14:39 [14991] clientmgr started
    $ -i 21:1/10@fsxnetn
    + 14:39 [14992] call to 21:1/10@fsxnet
    14:39 [14992] trying agency.bbs.nz [103.193.138.76]:0...

    It instead uses '0' and the call eventually fails. It only does this with the two nodes that have the outbox option selected. Is this issue fixed in versions later than 1.1a-99, or do I have something set up wrong? Thanks!

    Hello Mike!

    /path/to/outbox node 21:1/10@fsxnet agency.bbs.nz:24557 mypassword i /path/to/outbox

    When binkd attempts a call out, it does not use the binkd port
    included in the address in the config:

    14:39 [14992] trying agency.bbs.nz [103.193.138.76]:0...

    It instead uses '0' and the call eventually fails. It only does this
    with the two nodes that have the outbox option selected. Is this
    issue fixed in versions later than 1.1a-99, or do I have something set
    up wrong? Thanks!

    I would definitely recommend trying with the current 1.1a-115 version.

    Thanks, I upgraded and it is working now!
