Hi - I installed Ubuntu 7.10 yesterday, along with all the updates that are available. I then installed the PSKmail server as per the instructions for Ubuntu 7.04 on the Wiki. It took a while, especially when I got to the step that involved SSLeay. I think I finally got it all in there ok.... I also installed the latest version of fldigi - 2.09, and it seems to be working well. Now for the questions - 1 - I start fldigi with a terminal window, and then open another terminal window and start PSKmail server. It does not seem to be "talking" to fldigi - i.e. - fldigi never transmits a beacon when the server starts up. I have not had a chance to see what happens when someone connects. What step have I left out that tells rflinkserver.pl to use fldigi to talk to the world?? 2 - one of the installation steps involved the creation of the word table folder .cbh, and copying a couple of files there. Where are those files (word_table and cbh_code.pl) I need to copy? Yesterday K4ZLE and I were able to connect and read a mail message using the Puppy Distro at each end. However - it still says "-2 e-mails" are preseent even tho there aare several available to read. He was able to read them, but only after I told him on the telephone the messages were really there waiting to be read ;>) Hopefully Ubuntu will take care of that issue. -- 73 - Bill - N8ET Kanga US www.kangaus.com 419-423-4604 (Kanga) 419-423-5643 (home)
