Hej Gunnar,
When you boot puppy from a CD or USB stick, and you have made a save file,
you just edit the file ~/.pskmail/pskmailrc.pl
Puppy will make sure that everything you do is saved in the save file
automatically.
Next time you boot it will all be there again. So you don't have to do anything
special, just edit the pskmailrc.pl file.
I will send you the config file for PI4TUE, which has been running now for 5
years...
That will give you a working example.

Hi John,
I got all of that!
New question: When booting from a cd with puppy and having a stick to save on
should I edit the pskmailrc.pl on the stick? Does pskmail read the setting
from there? The answer, as I understand, will be: yes!?
In that file I have to edit a lot of different parameters?
$Beaconminute = 3; ?
$commandcall = "PA0R"; ?
$relay = "smtp.gmail.com"; ?
$smtpauthlevel = 2; ?
$smtptlsuser = "userid\@gmail.com"; ?
$smtptlspass = "gmailpassword"; ?
$smtptlsport = 587; ?
$monitor = 1; ?
$Aprs_connect = 1; ?
$latitude = "0000.00N";?
$longitude = "00000.00E"; ?
$serverstatus = "PSKmail 1.0.28 server "; ?
$Aprs_beacon = "0000.00NP00000.00E&PSKmail 1.0.28 server "; ?
@Aprs_port = qw (1314 1314 1314); ?
@Aprs_address = qw (netherlands.aprs2.net germany.aprs2.net italys.aprs2.net);
?
Maybe most of these are stupid questions but by not asking you (I) newer
learn;-)

Hi Gunnar,
Just to make sure I cover all aspects:
1. There are two "beacon" features in the server: A) the radio beacon to alert
other servers and clients of the presence of the server and B) Internet
beacons over the APRS network to post the position and the presence of your
server on the internet. These internet beacons are called POSIT beacons.
2. For the radio beacons the variable to adjust inthe [pskmailrc.pl] files are
the followings:
2.1 The $period variable defines the time in minutes between beacons.
Default is 60 so beacons every hour.
2.2 The @Beaconarray variable contains a sequence of 5 values ( "0" or "1").
Each value represents a minute (since we scan over a 5 minute period) and
tells the server to send or not a beacon for that minute, with the first
value representing the behaviour for minute zero, the next one for minute
one, and so on. This is useful for scanning servers or for "spreading" the
radio beacons around to avoid servers sending beacons over each other.
So for example if you have the following values:
$period=20;
@Beaconarray = qw (1 1 0 0 1);
then the server will send a beacon on the following minutes of each hour:
0,1,4 then 20, 21, 24 then 40, 41, 44.
3. For the POSIT beacons over the internet the variable $posit_time defines
the intervals in minutes between beacons. The default is 10.
Make sure you leave the ";" after the value for each line too.
You also have to stop and restart the server when you make a change in the
[pskmailrc.pl] file as it is read once at the start of the server.
You have made good progress.
Sorry if this is too detailed.
All the best,
73, John

Hej alla,
When configuring jPSKmail server can I get some help with the [pskmailrc.pl].
APRS only needs to be sent once every hour or half hour. I changed settings
to 30 but no change in sending (every 10 minutes)
There is probably a lot of other changes that is not correct but the problem
is that I know nothing of Pearl!?
Still struggling but getting closer, 500Hz FL-100 coming on Thursday!!!!
