      > One should be able to contact some nodes without any node_remap entries now.       > Kim mentioned you should make sure your bcfg4://local/general/OK_poll_flags       > contains "(,ITN|,IBN)"       > (or similar)       > and bcfg4://local/modem/dial is something like:       > 1: ATR | ,IBN       > 2: ATD | .              Janis,       I tried what you're suggesting here, but it didn't work for me. I currently       have the following (which seems to work, but uses a node_remap):       local->general->OK_poll_flags: (BND|IBN|ITX|IP) local->modem->dial:       ~ATR | ,IBN       ~ATD | ,IP       ~ATD | ,ITN              node_remap:       ,1:153/7715.0,BandMaster.tzo.com,Vancouver_BC,Irex_Hinton,bandmaster.tzo.com,30       0,CM,MO,IBN:bandmaster.tzo.com              If I change these to your suggestion and remove my node_remap for 1:153/7715,       then try polling 1:153/7715, I get a "can't find phone number" error.              This was probably the most frustrating part trying to get BBBS set up because       of a lack of documentation in this area. My existing setup is a mishmash of       what I've found in the forums plus trial and error.              I'd appreciate any suggestions from you as to what I might be doing wrong and       what I can improve.              Thanks :)              Ian              --- BBBS/LiI v4.10 Dada-2        * Origin: The Parity Error (1:153/250)    |
