Hi all,
I wonder if it is possible to run LinFBB together with LinBPQ+Mail on
the same machine, and to make them both available to users of the node
and surrounding network (incl. possible forwarding in between the two
mail servers). So, I tried to adopt the procedure John had mentioned in
his document 'Notes on installing and running LINBPQ', the part 'Running
Spider DX Cluster with LinBPQ'. Some details follow bellow. Until now, I
have only managed to get LinFBB to be listed in LinBPQ nodes list, but
it is still not accessible. (The response is "Busy from
<LinFBB_alias:call>" although LinFBB is running and accessible through
the telnet port.) Probably I missed something in configuration of
addresses, callsigns, or so ... Suggestions welcomed.

Steps performed:
modprobe netrom
ifconfig nr0 down
killall kissattach
killall socat
socat -d -d -ly pty,raw,echo=0,link=com10 pty,raw,echo=0,link=com11&
sleep 1
chmod a+rw com11
kissattach com10 bpq 10.1.1.1
nrattach netrom
ifconfig nr0 10.0.0.2 up
ax25d
netromd -i -t 15
/usr/local/sbin/fbb
cd /usr/local/linbpq
./linbpq mail
(Related to the above steps: Sometimes it seems that the new port 'ASYNC
com11 Chan A' is not initialized properly, so to fix that it is needed
to killall the processes above and to down the ports, and repeat it all
once again, as follows:)

Ok. Let's see the output of ifconfig: (There are two NIC's in that
Debian comp, both are linked to the other two comps in the LAN, running
WinXP/BPQ32. The first NIC runs subnet 192.168.3.x and the second runs
192.168.4.x - however I have no clue if ax0 and nr0 should use their
respective addresses John had put in the manual, or something else ...)
