Hey all!

Is anybody able to provide me a DoveNet feed via binkp?

Alternatively, has any written a script to do this via FTP/Husky?

Sure, I can.

Set your self up on https://clrghouz.bbs.dege.au and let me know when you have. I'll give you an FTN address for dovenet and then you should be good to go.

That would be much appreciated!

Yep - was checking this out the other day - I registered too.
I think you should be able to find an entry for me: "Sonic BBS"

This is part of an ongoing process to align all my systems.

I am currently providing Dovenet feeds via binkp if you still need one?

I tried to set up for DoveNet and it won't go through. Possibly the ZeroTier ID field is the problem. What is that?

Also, how do I update the settings on your page for HobbyNet? I have about 45 nodes connected and the list of available feeds needs updating.

Thanks,

Howdy,

OK, I saw you registered.

I sent you a link code, which once you've done it will enable you to managed your BBS. You'll see I've assigned you a dovenet address (zone 12).

Configure your authentication with clrghouz, and then subscribe to the areas you are interested in, and you should be good to go.

Poll clrghouz at z12.bbs.dege.au port 24554.

Let me know if you are having any trouble.

Hey Mike,

I tried to set up for DoveNet and it won't go through. Possibly the ZeroTier ID field is the problem. What is that?

What did you try?

The process for clearinghouz is this:
* You sign up and get a username/password,
* You then look for your BBS (it should be there) and send a link code. (If it isnt then you can create a new entry).
* Once you "link" your BBS to your user, you can manage your BBS in clearing houz (passwords, subscriptions, address/port to poll, etc).
* Once I see you are there, then I can give you a dovenet FTN id (eventually I'll have an "apply to join" - but I havent written that yet).
* Once I've given you an address, you can set your session passwords, set your subscription and start polling.

Is your BBS not already there?

ZeroTier isnt actually used at the minute by clearinghouz, but it shouldnt stop you registering your BBS if it isnt there. Did it? (ZeroTier is a VPN that we use in TQW, and my aim is to enable it to be configured by clearing houz.)

Also, how do I update the settings on your page for HobbyNet? I have about 45 nodes connected and the list of available feeds needs updating.

I can import nodelists, if you drop one in my inbound, I'll import it.

I eventually might move my BBS over to clrghouz and make it a point, then some stats will be available on mail flow for hobbynet.

Hey Mike,

* You then look for your BBS (it should be there) and send a link code. (If it isnt then you can create a new entry).

I trigger clrghouz to send you a link code.

It tried polling you on mystic-hobbies.com port 24554, which was an IPv6 address and failed. It should try again a few times over the next few days - but wanted to make sure your IPv6 address is correct in the DNS.

Hey Deon,

Thanks so much for this. Appreciate the work you're putting in.

I sent you a link code, which once you've done it will enable you to
managed your BBS. You'll see I've assigned you a dovenet address (zone 12).

Configure your authentication with clrghouz, and then subscribe to the
areas you are interested in, and you should be good to go.

Poll clrghouz at z12.bbs.dege.au port 24554.

Should be all setup my end now, which AKA best to use for the hub or shouldn't it matter?
Right now im using 12:1/1 and attempting to contact areafix.

Hello Mike

I had the same trouble as you I hate being a dummy but I stopped signing
up as soon as I got to the ZeroTier. Would someone explain that to me.

Thanks, Mike for doing what I should have done for my fsxnet dead feed.

Hey - Did you email Dan or Avon?

My FSXNet feed from Dan is up and running fine.

I had the same trouble as you I hate being a dummy but I stopped signing

ZeroTier is a software defined network, think a VPN, it's secure and keeps traffic hidden away from the public.
Deon has created a ZeroTier network for tqwNet and I have all 3 hubs communicating with each other purely over that to reduce the public visibility of the traffic. It also means that any node that wants to use ZeroTier can join the VPN network and communicate with their hub privately over the VPN rather than via public address space.

If you want to add ZeroTier to your system, it's quite straight forward;

Check out this; https://www.zerotier.com/download/

Then on your BBS computer run whatever it says in the link above for your platform, if Linux for example run;
curl -s https://install.zerotier.com | sudo bash

This will install ZeroTier, you then need to join the ZT network and give Deon your ZeroTier ID

To join the network, you run;

zerotier-cli join a47cf4a8c0053900

Then to get your ID to give to Deon run;
zerotier-cli info

If that works you will see something like;
200 info 9999abcdef 1.12.1 ONLINE

Give Deon whatever is the 10-digit code after the word `info`

He will then add you to the VPN and your system will get the IPv6 address used for the network. Once confirmed to be working you can change the address for the tqwNet hub you connect to to match it's ZeroTier address i.e.

hub.ca.zt.erb.pw:24554 (for the US/CA systems)
hub.uk.zt.erb.pw:24554 (for the UK/EU systems)
hub.au.zt.erb.pw:24554 (for the AU/NZ systems)

Hope this helps =)

@Deon, did I get the network ID right for the join command?

Ahh, yes, good point.

I need to make this more obvious in clrghouz. But yes, export to 12:1/1.

Howdy,

Good right up :)

@Deon, did I get the network ID right for the join command?

You did.

My plan is to also enable users to "self-register" with zero-tier, using that "ZeroTier ID" field in clrghouz. That way, folks are not waiting for me to register them.

(If you dont use zerotier, you can leave that field blank clrghouz...)

No not at all, you can still join without it, that doesn't affect you getting echomail etc.
It's just if you wanted a fully secure connection to the hub, then the vpn would be a good shout! =)
