    From Steven Sheeley@1:275/100 to All on Thu Nov 3 12:04:05 2016

    Hello everybody!

    Internet Rex (Registered, 25 node edition)
    Windows 7 (32Bit platform)

    I've been having issues with my Mailer (Taurus, an Argus clone) and tried setup
    IRex. I have it setup and everthing seemed to be working then I noticed one fatal issue. If I poll my hubs, I can connect and send packets to them with no
    issue. However, none of my hubs can connect inbound to me amnd the log file only shows a disconnect.

    What other informaiton would y'all need to help me figure this out?

    Thanks in advance.


    Steven

    For one thing 1:275/100 is Carol Shenkenberger in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
    not the Origin: above .. Rupert, WV. I've been using Irex for many years and this does not compute. When I connected with /100 using Irex (from 2011 to 2015) I was running Irex with Fastecho and Mystic bbs. I'd check your irex.log and see what other systems your connecting with, also reasons why they might disconnect. Your Irex address manger should display your main fidonet not and your other aka's and network default domain names.

    Check password case on both ends plus to see what kind of encryption (such as CRAM-MD5, etc) is used on your end and their end. If any of these differ, that could most definitely cause a disconnect.

    Actually, my ADDRESS manager shows my main Fido address as well as all my AKAs.
    It's been that way for years.
