• MIS2 BinkP

    From Avon@21:1/101 to All on Sunday, October 22, 2017 12:45:34
    Seems there may be issues with sending files such as nodelists etc.

    Have a look at the MIS2 logging and you will see connections with message packets being sent but other files timing out. This seems to be happening across a number of nodes.

    I will revert to MIS for IPv4 BinkP connects after posting this.

    Does your end show the connection completed? Does your log show the date of the

    Quoting Avon to All <=-

    I will revert to MIS for IPv4 BinkP connects after posting this.

    What sucks is I have IPv6 native here, I just can't get it to work I
    every 6-8 months fight with it again but always fail. It's just too
    complex for the average person I belive. (Though I know many people
    argue with me about that!) ;)

    It seems I am having an issue also. It seems to be when the fsxinfo.zip file is
    being transfered from BBBS to Mystic A36. The actual transmission path is from
    you 21:1/100 to me 21:1/128 (BBBS) to me 21:1/128.2 (Mystic v1.12 A36). Currently I am only using MIS to handle Telnet, BinkP, and Events in Mystic A36. Below is a log of the Mystic side of the transfer.

    Now when mail files are involved in PKT form or other files such as TIC's the files seem to get transfered without any problems at least from BBBS's perspective. Below is a log of the BBBS side of the transfer:

    As I see it both sides of the transfer can't be telling the truth of the situation. I will try to visually monitor the next transfer from both sides.

    So this issue is appearing for you in MIS not MIS2 as it was for me?

    Yes. I only have MIS loaded and it is currently only setup to handle Telnet, BinkP, and Events.

    I can try to use MIS2 to handle Telnet and BinkP and only use MIS for Events if
    that would help testing the situation. I currently have not loaded MIS2 at all
    since A36 was installed.

    I also have Mystic A35 Lin64 installed on another machine that I can adjust the setup on if needed to assist.

    BINKP in A36 has a bunch of changes, so its not really beneficial to test A35.
