I used to tunnel it         NW> to my uni email address, but this is inefficient (33% overhead with         NW> base64 and uuencode) and can be time consuming to do without a good         NW> client side script.              so you are one of the script kiddies ? :)               NW> Now I have ADSL on the BBS (and unmetered access from my house at uni), I         NW> can poll anytime and at no extra cost.. :)              thats life :)               NW> BinkP I currently only use to call out with; I use Bink4D from Aminet         NW> and (since the w*n*er didn't include the GPL source)              don't use it !              why not make it into your own c code in zeus ?              sometimes i hate gpl licensenses :/               NW> I have a 4D capable version I built on the original source - I can't         NW> remember whether I got this to work properly or what happened or even if         NW> I'm using it right now;              if its working put it on aminet or send it on amiganet as hatch, can't hurt       now :)               NW> certainly I didn't release it publically. Neither version work         NW> particularly well.              was not what it did here, changed to linux anyway :)               NW> Caller Name Town/Group/Address Actions Upped         NW> : Bo Simonsen 2:236/100.0 ....M 0                NW> The second caller there is the only recent one which wasn't me - have         NW> you configured your Qico correctly or do you have an alias ? :)              i have alot of alias, check your logs :)              nope bo did call you, and i tryed to do the same only one of us did come in to       you, i missed to provide port 23 on your hostname and then qico call you       default on 60179 if i remember               NW> Ah, it's exciting having a 24h multiline BBS :) at last.. I'm going         NW> to be spending a lot of time this summer redoing the mess the BBS has               good to see your spirit lives :)               NW> got into over the last few years. With only a few occasional callers,         NW> and most activity being Fido related, I've left a lot of things to go         NW> out of date or be left unfinished..              what about zeus ?               BP>> i don't have modem atm on my linux box :(        NW> I plan to phase out modem access to my BBS; keep it on for emergencies,         NW> outgoing calls and the like, but phase it out for public use.              most old users will hate you for this, but i have taken the same route on       this, but i have reversed it to try to have modem on linux now since i could       use a fax :)              its not solved completely, but qico is ready :)                      Regards Benny              ... and it works :)              --- Msged/LNX 6.1.2 (Linux/2.4.20-13.8 (i686))        * Origin: ftp://junc.org/ binkd 0.9.5 xpoint@junc.org (2:237/53)    |
