   >Well sorry Guys, but I have another question now. How I can simulate a poll to   
   > my HUB?   
      
   I'm not sure what you are asking here... "simulate"?  If you mean, how do I   
   crash mail to someone here's what I do for the Linux version - are you also   
   using Linux?   
      
   You need to make the node's flavor you are calling Crash in external.bbb in   
   the [nodes] section with a C as below:   
      
   ===cut here=== external.bbb ===   
   [nodes]   
    node      spass   apass   ppass   tpass gr  st pa route   
    --------- ------- ------- ------- ----- --- -- -- -------------------   
      
   1:15/1       pswd  pswrd  pswrd  paswrd  XF  C  2   
   ===cut here===   
      
   In bcfg4 (node number) you need to set this:   
     OK poll flags: (BND|IP|ITX|IBN)   
      
   In Local: Modem ->Dial you can set the kind of calls you will make:   
      
      
   |########################   
       Predial              Postdial   Nodelist regexp match   
   |########################   
   |  1: ATR                  |          ,IBN   
   |########################   
   |  2: ATD                  |          ,IP   
   |########################   
   |  3: ATD                  |          ,ITN   
   |########################   
      
   In bcfg4 (node number)-> Local->Events I have an event that runs   
   Sunday->Saturday that "is a 'must', with [X]Send crashmail to all systems   
      
   Now the tcpip node that dials out needs a script under linux.. Here's one I   
   use for one of my dialout nodes:   
   ===cut here===   
   #!/bin/sh   
   cd /home/bbbs   
   BBBSLANG en_US.utf8   
   while :   
   do   
      cd /home/bbbs   
     ./bbbs 2 2 TCPIP   
   #   
     RC=$?   
     echo BBBS RC: $RC   
      
     if [ $RC = 137 ]; then   
       exit   
     fi   
      
   #  set this errorlevel in Global: FidoNet: Sessions: Mail errorlevel   
   #  if [ $RC = 11 ];   
   #    then nohup /home/bbbs/mailin.sh  &   
   #  fi   
   #  Above commented out since I run mailin.sh in a cron job now.   
   #  set this errorlevel in Global: FidoNet: Sessions: User mail errl.   
   #  if [ $RC = 12 ];   
   #  then nohup /home/bbbs/mailout.sh &   
   #  fi   
      
     if [ $RC = 0 ]; then   
       exit   
     fi   
      
     reset   
      
   done   
   ===cut here===   
      
   Take care,   
   Janis
