Posting from another WWIVnet BBS. So far it looks like my board is sneding, however, it does not appear I am receiving. I posted a test message from my board, and it showed up and was responded to(when I checked on this other BBS) however, the response has not shown up on my BBS (it's been 4 days now).

Any suggestions?

I have the same issue. Mark (Weatherman) Hoffman made a suggestion after he examined the network traffic and there was a network change in December 2024 and I have to change one of my files but my tweaks have not been successful. Let me know if you find out. I'm running 5.0 on XP so I was going to put it on a newer machine and upgrade to see if I can a)keep my existing board and b)get my network traffic working again.

There must be some type of bug or wrong file installed that is eating the packets after they are downloaded.

From this side, I see Jahmas's packets pending and being downloaded, then deleted from my side after it is downloaded. From what point, I have no visibility. All I can see if the connection, the packets are being downloaded, and that is it.

Either the network software is deleting it even if the xfer isn't really working, or it is being eaten on the BBS side. I have not changed any software over here for a long time concerning the network.

Hopefully we can get to the bottom of what is happening with the xfered packets.

I have the batch exe turned off on my timed events but can always test it. I can go back to baseline and toss it a few times (keep you eyes open). I asked Jimmy Mac to logon and take a look but my OS is too old for him to do that. Is there another way for someone to "remote" into Win XP to see?

Can you RDP to it from another system?

If you are getting the packets, maybe it's possible there's a simple typo or extra space somewhere in the network definitions? temp file path?

Maybe use VNC or something, but that would require you open ports to remote the system.
