• Netfoss 1.23

    From Tiny@21:1/130 to All on Wed Dec 2 12:39:02 2020
    Hello guys,

    Does anyone have the July 20'th version of netfoss 1.23? I recently upgradedto
    the november 1.24 and it's causing me no end of issues. (Yes I remembered tocopy
    the netfoss.dll to the system32 directory)

    I am back on 1.23 but for some reason I lose the nfu.exe when I was backup itup. :(
    Just don't feel like messing around trying to figure this out so if you haveabove I'd
    apreciate a copy.

    I tried to get it but google drive says it's infected with a virus and only
    you can download it. LOL

    I just scanned it and Webroot seems to have a problem with netspy.exe. Maybe Dropbox will let you download it? (Assuming you trust it):

    Most virus scanners that have any sort of heuristic mode will flag NETCOM.EXE and NET2BBS.EXE as having variants of old viruses. It can be annoying.

    I just tried to upload 1.23R to your board and it upchucked on both of the installed Zmodem protocols as well as Ymodem. Can you have a look at your configuration and I can try again later?

    Can you send it via binkd? File transfers don't work on my board anymore.
    I gave up attempting to fix it many years ago.

    Check your inbound directory and you should find it there.

    I really need to learn how to do that. Not sure if it's something Mystic can do.

    Mystic uses the Binkley style outbound format for its outgoing files so it's not all that hard. You just need to manually create a flow file in one of your outbound directories.

    Assuming you're sending a file to another fsxNet node in your same zone, you would put the flow file into whichever outbound directory you set for your fsxnet domain. Just use /ftn/out/fsxnet as an example. You would then create a text file with the address of the destination node as the filename in a specific format and use .ilo as the filename extension. The first four positions of the filename would be the destination net in hex, the last four positions would be the node in hex. Using your address (21:3/110) as an example:

    The net 3 translates to 0x0003 in hex, so the first four letters of the filename are 0003. The node 110 translates to 0x006E so the second half if 006E. The extension of .ilo tells the mailer to send the file immediately. So the filename ends up being /ftn/out/fsxnet/0003006E.ilo for that destination.

    The file itself is just a text file with the path and filename(s) you wish to send, one on each line.

    Things get more complex if there's already a flow file for the destination node in the outbound directory. In that case it's best to wait for the mailer to finish with that delivery unless you know what you're doing.

    I'm probably explaining all of this horribly.

    There used to be a number of small utilities to do this all for you much like XROBOT does for FrontDoor mailers. It's unfortunate they all seem to have been lost over time. :(

    I believe Mystic also does fileboxes. Those are much easier but it's a bit overkill to create one for a node you're not regularly sending files to.

    I really need to learn how to do that. Not sure if it's something
    Mystic can do.

    in one of your outbound directories.

    What I do (and it should work for Mystic) is write a crash/direct netmail
    with the file attach flag as well.

    I've done this as well just because. LOL

    Not a problem. I have several older versions as well if this particular one doesn't solve your issue.

    Check your inbound directory and you should find it there.

    Thank you, but unfortunately XROBOT only works with FrontDoor. I was referring to software which performs the same functions for Binkley style outbound systems.
