  • fidopoll issue

    Hi,

    I have a problem with fidopoll, I think so.

    I'm testing two BBS (Mystic) in local area (192.168.x.x). I've created a new network "textnet" and I have configured one message board in both BBS.

    Apparently, everything is fine configured and when I write a new post from BBS2 and executed ./mutil mailout.ini, a packet is created fine.

    If I executed ./fidopoll forced, BBS2 send the packet to BBS1 and in BBS1 I don't have any issues executing ./mutil mainin.ini

    OK, but here's the problem. When I create a new message in BBS1 and execute ./mutil mailout.ini, I have the packet in my /echomail/out directory but
    when I execute ./fidopoll forced from BBS2 to receive this new packet, it doesn't work. I don't receive anything.

    Why? Hahaha.

    Do you have BBS2 listed as an "Export" of that message base? You can set
    that in the Echo Node Editor or the Message Base Editor.

    The problem has been fixed. I didn't have the zip package installed on Linux.

    Thanks
