Hello deon!

16 Sep 25 13:57, I wrote to you:

Finally I was able to fix the error.
I had uncommented the last line in binkd.conf which allowed connections to unlisted nodes, so I commented it out and now it works.

Thanks for you help.

Re: How to add an additional network?

Howdy,

domain fidonet /var/spool/ftn/outb 4 binkp.net
domain fsxnet /var/spool/ftn/outb 21 fsxnet.nz
address 4:900/733@fidonet
address 21:x/y00.z@fsxnet

Maybe try without the domain name at the end of the "domain" statements.

Also, the "zone" ID (4,21) on the "domain" lines are not the zone's of the othernets, but it indicate what "zone" is your *primary* domain.

This needs to be consistent with your mail tosser.

If your mail tosser is putting fsxnet mail in /var/spool/ftn/outb.015, then you need to change binkd's configuration to have "4" for the fsxnet domain, not 21. (Assuming hpt is treating your "fidonet" AKA as your *primary* AKA - and thus it is packaging your fidonet mail to "/var/spool/ftn/outb")

First it tries with the appropiate address and then switches to the other network and of course it would not resolve the hostname.

Hello everybody!

I've tried adding a secondary network, FSXNET, but when I write a netmail message, for example to Areafix I see in the logs that binkd tries to connect to my uplink but using @fidonet so I doesn't resolve the hostname. I tried in different ways as the FAQ mentions in 22 & 23 but I get the same results. I use hpt as tosser.
