Hi All!
I am experimenting with othernets, and have a strange thing (misconfiguration on my side?)
I have 2 addresses 1 FIDO, 1 othernet.
I want binkd to use binkp.net for unknown fido addresses.
For the othernet only the nodes defined in the config should be used.
My config looks like this:
root-domain not configured.
fido domain has root-domain binkp.net
othernet has no root-domain
domain fidonet /home/fido/outbound 2 binkp.net
domain fido alias-for fidonet
domain fidonet.org alias-for fidonet
domain othernet /home/fido/outbound 2
address 2:310/31@fidonet
address 666:1/2@othernet
#root-domain binkp.net
#defnode *
If defnode * is commented out it works, but does not dial unknown fido nodes that have an entry in binkp dns. If I enable defnode * it adds a second othernet AKA to all the nodes it tries to dial:
-h 2:310/31.1@fidonet
-d 2:12/340@fidonet
-h 2:310/31.1@othernet <-- should not be here
-d 2:12/34@othernet <-- should not be here
Is that a config error on my side?
I thought if root-domain is only configured for one domain, it should
only be used in that domain. To me it looks like it also does 2. DNS lookups for the nodenumber, and adds the same node also with domain @othernet.
Is there a way to configure binkd to a) only add @othernet AKAs to
nodes that are configured for @ithernet b) lookup unknown fido nodes
in binkp.net and dial them (not for othernet)
I use HPT as a tosser and have used the domainless tosser config from
the FAQ.

It has to have a othernet domain, mostly this othernet domain is virtually.For the othernet only the nodes defined in the config should be used.

root-domain not configured.
fido domain has root-domain binkp.net
othernet has no root-domain
Yes. you have to define the nodestatements with domain and disable defnode.-h 2:310/31.1@fidonet
-d 2:12/340@fidonet
-h 2:310/31.1@othernet <-- should not be here
-d 2:12/34@othernet <-- should not be here

I think we are talking "around" each other.
With "root-domain" I mean the DNS Domain that is used to automatically
up a node if it is not defined in the config.
What I want is that "fidonet" uses the binkp.net domain.
domain fidonet /home/fido/outbound 2 binkp.net
domain othernet /home/fido/outbound 2 <- missing last argument root-domain
What I am looking for is a
defnode *
only for fidonet, and not for any other domain.
How to configure that in binkd?
