Is there much advantage gained in running pskmail servers off of livecds? I guess a better question is how bleeding edge are the software components? Looking at the Ubuntu 5 section of the server install, I'm wondering if the openssl sillyness about needing to compile your own still applies. I'm just thinking towards being able to remotely update VE7SUN as I'm the resident linux expert for the club :) On 3/16/07, Rein Couperus <rein@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
The new server has a problem with reconnect, which I discovered just before I started the return trip from Spain.. The workaround is to let the server time out until it sends a disconnect and then connect again. Then it works fine, although it is a nuisance. This is nr. 1 on the bug list, and it will be repaired this coming weekend. Other known bugs of server version 0.2.9-4: * There is a problem with the From: address when you send a Pskmail email message. It takes the address of the last station connected instead of the station sending the message. * There is also a problem with using fldigi 1.3, which has a lead time between carrier on and start of the first character which is far too long. These pskmail related bugs will be tackled asap now, the cause is known. This was broken when I tried to tune the protocol to the higher speed of PSK125... 73, Rein PA0R This stuff is still experimental :) > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: pskmail@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Gesendet: 16.03.07 20:50:44 > An: pskmail@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Betreff: [pskmail] first attempt to connect to VE7SUN > > About 8- 8:30pm PDT last night i tried connecting > to the VE7SUN station in British columbia.
