• FTN network?

    From acn@420:2/1 to All on Saturday, March 13, 2021 13:43:52
    Hi,

    If I've read it correctly, WeedNet is currently only available as a QWK network.

    Is it planned to make it available as a Fido-like network?

    If it would be okay, I could try to create a gateway on my BBS - but it would be the first time that I try this :)
    The network number 420 would be fitting, I guess :)

    Have a nice weekend!

    Regards,
    Anna

    I dont know about setting up FTN networks, I would not be opposed to letting someone set that up for me...

    Hallo Marisag,

    Thank you for the permission :)

    I've set up my BBS as a FTN hub and connected my OpenXP point to it.

    At least the messages are flowing in, so I hope this message is getting
    out :)

    I have no idea if sending NetMails between FTN and QWK is possible this
    way (or if it is possible at all in QWK networks).

    Regads,
    Anna

    Okay, no problem :)

    I think I've set up a basic hub that can gate the messages between QWK and FTN.
    So if you like to connect, I can set you up.

    Just mail me to negotiate the settings and a password:

    FidoNet 2:240/5824.1
    fsxNet 21:3/127.1
    Internet acn (at) acn.wtf

    My plan would be to use zone 420 and then region 1 for US, region 2 for Europe etc.

    So my node is 420:2/1, as I'm in Germany :)

    Anyone who would like to be the hub for US would then be 420:1/1.
    If someone wants to be only a node and no hub, I would then give it
    420:1/2 and wait for a hub to arrive :)

    Next, I'll look into MakeNL etc. to create a nodelist :)

    Regards,
    Anna

    As you are from the US - no problem :)

    Just write me eg. at acn (at) acn.wtf to finalize the details (passwords etc.)

    I'm glad I can help :) I just mailed you the details.

    I didn't realize anna/acn were the same person.

    Oh :) "acn" are my initials (Anna Christina Nass) and I use these as my handle most of the time. Sometimes also "acn128" :)

    Thanks for all you do for BBSing in 2o21!

    Oh, that's not so much in my opinion. I've just set up a BBS at the end of November 2020 and play around a little.
    I think it's great that there still is a community in the BBS scene, especially in the smaller 'othernets'.

    Have a nice day!

    Anna

    Ok, I'll try to dig in today, if not tomorrow.

    Well... running the FTN HUBs is something, at any rate it takes all of us so... glad you're a part of the community. w00h00!

    I was wondering if there was any reasoning behind that. Your
    choice is a good one! I did a little research and learned
    something about 4/20, and 4:20.
