  • Think I had it running...

    From Don Lowery@1:340/1000 to All on Monday, May 04, 2020 13:02:34
    Made the changes & did a manual poll of one of my hubs. Didn't work...but it did attempt it. Here's the log of it:

    ! 04 May 12:34:11 [1] binkd.cfg: 38: d:\fe\inbound\insecure: incorrect directory

    Made the folder & went away.

    ! 04 May 12:35:27 [1] binkd.cfg: 39: inbound-temp: unknown keyword

    Changed this from inbound-temp to temp-inbound & went to the steps below.

    04 May 12:36:48 [1] BEGIN, binkd/0.9.4 binkd.cfg
    04 May 12:36:48 [2] clientmgr started

    Tried another hub as well...but got the same information. Looks like it's running & trying to connect. Where do I goto now?

    Those errors indicate that a link is down - either yours or something further upstream.

    A good test to know if it is you or further, is to ping your default gateway (if you can figure that out) - or something like 8.8.8.8

    Being that Mystic works...it's on my end. Fixing to head to work in a
    few...but knowing what the error is...can stew on it for the day & come back
    & try something else. Thank you for the information!

    Will do later on this afternoon. At least having a route to go to test the situation is better than using a Ouija board to figure it out.
