Hi Al, (and anyone),
(I know this message I'm replying to is 3 years old... but...)
I'm re-visiting setting up the FREQ function on my system, and having trouble wi
th it. I've edited the ../sbbs/ctrl/freqit.ini to have a "magic word" (ALLFILES
) set up to a particular file directory, which is pretty straightforward. So th
en, from a test system I have (running SBBS as a point from my main system), I s
end a netmail to my main system. I've tried various "To:" names, and the subjec
t line is: FR: ALLFILES . The point generates the crash netmail and sends it t
o my BBS. I watch the logs and I see the connection, and then it receives (two)
.req files and deletes them both, and..... that's it. Binkit closes the connec
tion, there are no error messages, and nothing else happens.
Does anyone have FREQ working on their system? Is there something else that nee
ds to be set up? Not sure what I'm missing here... Thanks for info.
Dan
