    ROUTE-TO 1:261/38 1:ALL 3:ALL 4:ALL
    ROUTE-TO 2:203/0 2: ALL

    I don't know if it's a typeo, the all after the 2: has a space...

    It was a typo....

    And Bill... I don't know if this will help... BUT... I have been at
    this soooooo long I forgot where I picked it up...

    I always put the exceptions first followed by regular... If that was my route file...

    ROUTE-TO 2:203/0 2:ALL
    ROUTE-TO 1:261/38 Bla Bla Bla...

    Listen, I have done this for years... might have started it using crap software... more than like that was/is the case and more than likely
    has nothing to do with anying...

    I'll try that... :)


    I also trurn clockwise 3 times before I sit down when I write/rewrite
    my route file and that seems to work for me as well.

    We all have our superstitions... can't hurt... :)

    Thanks

    Hiya gang,,,

    As many know from my last few posts, I switched to binkd as my mailer
    and had to change sbbsecho to a FLO style tosser. In the config I
    have:

    ROUTE-TO 1:261/38 1:ALL 3:ALL 4:ALL
    ROUTE-TO 2:203/0 2: ALL

    Today I noticed a netmail destined for a z2 address being routed
    through
    1:261/38 rather than 2:203/0.

    Have I done something wrong?

    Double check your config. Those lines should be ROUTE_TO with an underscore, rather than a hyphen. Also, I'm not sure if it was just a message typo or not, but there shouldn't be a space between 2: and ALL.
    It should be 2:ALL.

    Both were typos.... the space and the dash. Too little sleep.

    The way it's written is: ROUTE_TO 2:ALL

    Thanks...

    BTW, did you get my netmail?

    i dunno... which system did you address it to? :lol:

    seriously, though... there are at least six that i may write from... if you try to write a netmail reply to one of my posts, it'll likely be addressed to the system i wrote from... there's three nodes here and
    two points plus another couple that i've started visiting and
    recently...

    Netmail to follow at this address... :)

    I'll be looking at it more this weekend. As soon as I figure out how binkd uses the nodelist I'll just crash direct,

    Binkd doesn't use the raw nodelist, but someone compiles a
    binkd-readable nodelist (I-BINKD file echo?). You can basically just
    add a line your binkd.conf:

    include /path/to/i-binkd/BINKD.TXT

    Then subscribe to that file echo, and make the path match. As soon as
    the next one arrives in that directory, binkd should automatically
    restart due to a config file change (if using the "-C" option).

    OK... I am assuming that only handles Fidonet. What about the two other ftn networks I belong to. There must me a way to compile all three raw nodelists into something that binkd can read...

    include /path/to/i-binkd/BINKD.TXT

    Actually the version of Binkd I am running is supposed to be able to
    use the nodlist. It uses perl hooks. I dont know if anyone has got it actually running yet though..



    Then subscribe to that file echo, and make the path match. As soon as the next one arrives in that directory, binkd should automatically restart due to a config file change (if using the "-C" option).

    It stops my mailer dead every time. I used to do it automatically via event, and I use the -C option, along with Mark's batch file. I dont
    know why it thinks the config has changed, as it has not. Only the
    file that it points to has changed.

    It originally did the same to mine when I added the line Nick posted above... BUT, I didn't have the <root-domain> as the last variable on my first domain line... id:

    domain fidonet c:\fd\outbound 1 binkd.net

    I didn't have the binkd.net at the end of it. I checked the logs and that gave me the answer. Now it uses it properly as I can now direct/crash to any node listed. As soon as I get whispnet and micronet compiled, I can remove all the ROUTE_TO's in the sbbsecho.cfg file....
