  • fsxNet application - to whom?

    From Winzlo@21:1/172 to All on Sun Jun 21 18:34:35 2026
    I've been attempting to join fsxNet for about a month or so now, and according to documentation, I filled out the application, and sent it to avon@bbs.nz. I've done this twice now, with no response. Is that a stale contact or does it take that long to apply? I checked my mail server logs and there's no record of a *.nz attempting to deliver any messages, ruling spam detection out.

    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

    Howdy,

    I've been attempting to join fsxNet for about a month or so now, and according to documentation, I filled out the application, and sent it to avon@bbs.nz. I've done this twice now, with no response. Is that a stale contact or does it take that long to apply? I checked my mail server logs and there's no record of a *.nz attempting to deliver any messages, ruling spam detection out.

    Paul's busy with life at the moment.

    Head over to https://clrghouz.bbs.dege.au and set yourself up, and create or claim your BBS. If you get stuck call out.

    When you are done, let me know and I'll give you the next steps.

    Hi, Deon. I've registered the BBS, didn't see anywhere to indicate that it already exists on FidoNet (1:154/140) or Dove-Net (DOWNLO), but those are up and running, including tic prcessing.

    Standing by.

    Cool, you are all set up.

    You should have got an email with more instructions - let me know if you get stuck anywhere...

    Hi, Deon. I sent you a NetMail, in hopes that you got it. I'm struggling with file echoes - I can only rescan back 365 days, and in doing so, I only get 3 file echoes:

    FSX_NODE
    FSX_INFO
    FSX_IMGE

    How do I obtain the entirety of FSXNet's file areas? I have more than ehough storage to handle it. I'm wondering if I'm hitting some other limit that's preventing the transfer.

    Any ideas? Anyone else have this issue? Being the newbie, can you help me out?

    Many thanks!

    I can zip/tar up all the files I have in the fxs file areas if you want
    them. I have stuff going back to 2018. It's about 3.5g of files.

    Thanks much! Storage will not be an issue. This will be interesting to import, something I've also never done. Trial and error is the bets teacher.
