  • MBSE No Longer Pools

    From Robert Wolfe@1:116/18 to All on Monday, February 25, 2013 13:36:10
    That should read "poll." :(

    I am able to set up outbound binkp polls via the mbout command. However, the polls are never executed anymore and I am not sure what the deal is here. Inbound binkp connections run and act as normal. However, the inability for poll using MBSE itself has caused me to make a temporary switch over to BBBS/NT
    for a while until I can get the issue with MBSE resolved. The log files do not
    show any errors in connectivity, just that the polls are created.

    If anyone can offer any assistance or any insight as to why this may be happening, please feel free to post a reply to this message here, as I am sure the information provided would be of a great help.

    Thanks!

    This sounds like some of the problems I sometimes have with my 2 mbse systems and how I manage them is to close down mbse and checking some outbound and bso directories, and then in mbse session setup checking server networks ip hostname and ip address and then try to see what this say and if it look fine I
    trying to ping router hostname and ip address to see if it respon well.
    I the ping give a good respons I then reboot the pc and delete all oubound old mail and stat file + queues and try make mbse poll out. Mostly all is working again then after this.

    Take care,
    Gert
