• Weekly nodelist report on noteworthy changes (311)

    From Wilfred van Velzen@2:280/464 to All on Fri Nov 7 11:57:04 2025

    Hi All,

    New ZIN in Z1:
    Pvt,100,Ozz_Nixon,Crestview_FL,Ozz_Nixon,-Unpublished-,300

    There is nothing to test. And a Pvt node is not allowed in a ZIN section anyway.

    Nodes:
    ,111,Alien_Signals_BBS,Dutton_ON,Scott_Carter Down,550,Point_Of_No_Return,Toronto_ON,Mark_Da_Silva
    Were removed from Net 229.

    Node:
    ,2,Election_Coodinator,Buffalo_NY,Robert_Wolfe
    In R13, is still present in the Z2 weekly, that's probably because of: Zone,1,North_America_(309)

    Which is 2 days behind the current day. :-(


    Regards, Wilfred

    This RIN is now also gone from the Z2 nodelist.

    Node: ,20,Omicron_Theta,Memphis_TN,Robert_Wolfe is still present in net 261.


    Other than that, there are no noteworthy changes this week.


    Bye, Wilfred.

    Hi All,

    The nodes of Stephen_Hurd in net 103 are updated.
    Node 1 had an INA flag added:
    1:103/1 bbsdev.net:24554 2001:19f0:6000:94c9::81:241 Ok.
    1:103/1 bbsdev.net:24554 45.32.81.241 Ok.
    Node 13 is no longer Pvt:
    1:103/13 wd1cks.org:24554 2001:19f0:6000:94c9::68:234 Ok.
    1:103/13 wd1cks.org:24554 45.32.68.234 Ok.
    Node 17 had the ITN flag removed

    Only issue remaining in net 103 is with the host:

    1:103/0 realitycheckbbs.org:24554 73.158.236.238 No such AKA.

    In net 135 node was removed:
    ,230,Nite_Eyes_BBS,Davie_FL,Alex_Corris

    New RIN in R19: ,42,CosmoNET_BBS,Sallisaw_OK,Brian_Scott,-Unpublished-,300,XA,INA:chipcunk.synchro.net,IBN

    It is not a CM node, but if it isn't online you don't expect a TCP/IP connect at all:
    + 21 Nov 12:40:29 [21570] call to 1:19/42@fidonet

    + 21 Nov 12:40:31 [21570] done (to 1:19/42@fidonet, failed, S/R: 0/0 (0/0 bytes))

    Node 2:221/360 has got the IVM flag added. There is a TCP/IP connect at the default IVM poort (3141), but I can't test the protocol. ;-)

    New node in net 341: ,207,Citrick_BBS,Tenerife,Tanausu_Martin_Gonzalez,-Unpublished-,300,CM,XW,IBN:citlmbbs.synchro.net
    Connect OK with: BinkIT/2.42,JSBinkP/4,sbbs3.21a/FreeBSD

    Node 2:5031/52 was put on Hold.

    Attempting to poll using my OS/2 VMODEM capable system resulted in "NO CARRIER" so there still seems to be some kind of issue. I can confirm that ITN sessions to the listed port are answered by FrontDoor/2 and mbcico was able to negotiate a successful WaZOO/EMSI session.

    I had turned the firewall rule off while testing something and promptly forgot to re-enable it. Fixed now.

    Yes, the port is now open, but I cannot connect.

    Confirmed, it has been removed from your nodelist entries. ;-)

    Yep, VMODEM was pretty nice once, but that was 30 years ago, before BinkP. ;-)

    But I still wonder why it works locally in my home network, but does not over the internet. Can anyone confirm a working VMODEM link over the internet? There are not so many IVM flags in the nodelist and some of those are not VMODEM but TELNET servers.

    That's not a nodelist issue,

    that's a configuration issue on my board - which I've fixed. My board
    wasn't configured with 1023/0. Thanks for letting me know.

    Yes, adding 103/0 introduced an issue with mail routing. I've taken it

    I'm aware of the issue and will resolve it when feasible.

    Hi Tommi,

    On 2026-01-02 20:36:14, you wrote to me:

    New node in net 221:

    There is nothing to test...

    Network 221 segment updated, but as you know in R20 you have to
    wait a week...

    I don't, but there are no daily updates in R20?

    Yep. As you can see, the updates get into the Z2DAILY's only once in a week:

    Have you discussed this with your RC ?


    Bye, Wilfred.
