  • FTNs @ 2oFB...

    From paulie420@21:2/150 to All on Thu Jul 9 20:54:42 2026
    Somethings wrong will polling @ 2oFB...

    I checked for bsy semaphores, and ran the stupid scripts we made a couple years ago that 'fix' stopped up polling - but nothing is working.

    I hate FTNs - and I'm not good at them. Gotta figure it out ASAP. :/

    I'm not a Mystic expert by any means... but an observer that apparently there are bugs that are unable to be resolved.

    Why Asap?

    The world of Fido weirdos really does not care whenever I take my system offline... for whatever the reason, even if I do so for my own amusement.

    I have one downlink who's the exception to the rule - always loves to
    complain about how many hours it's been since his last poll when my
    system is down.

    Your logs will probably tell you what's wrong, and should just about always be the first place you look for a problem.

    I THINK so - sometimes I have to run a ./mis poll force and it seems to get things back to normal; but prolly should check them .log's. :/

    Next time I visit can I shut it off? I just want to be able to giggle when they start freaking out they can't poll you every 10 seconds.
