  • Synchronet/Argus, passing wrong address?

    From Rob Olsen to All on Wed Jan 13 07:45:28 2010
    Hello everyone.

    I'm trying to get my Synchronet system up and running with Fidonet once again. (took the BBS down a few years ago) Unfortunately, my backups didn't quite work, so I decided to start fresh with the mailer side.

    I followed the guides from Time Warp of the Future, (http://time.synchro.net:81/argus.ssjs and fidonet.ssjs) and all seems to be well running Argus.

    Problem starts when I go into sychronet locally and try to send a netmail. (trying to send an areafix to my hub) here's what I put:

    to: areafix@1:266/512
    subject: (my areafix pw)
    body: %LIST

    When I look at argus' status screen, it says it's trying to send it to 2:266/512! I double checked all the setting and didn't see that address anywhere, so not sure where the problem is exactly.

    Anyone have any pointers?

    Thanks!

    Sorry, couldn't delete the previous message... after a bit more digging, I found one option in Argus I missed... "Outbound Default Zone" found in the paths folder of all places was set to 2...

    A quick change to 1 and all is working great.
