  • gOLD mINE Community Door Server is back up

    From J0hnny A1pha@21:4/158 to All on Tue Jul 16 23:40:17 2024
    Hey all, apologies to those using gOLD mINE for a door server. It's been down for a while after a nasty crash, but I've restored most of it from an older backup. gOLD mINE is a "no signup" door server, FYI. Just config and go!

    NOTE: new connection details:
    - address: 143.198.58.173 or goldminedoors.com
    - port: 2513

    I'm going through each door and verifying it works. I've found some that aren't
    working, I expect those to be corrected this week. For instance, DOS TEXT games
    are awaiting Frotz re-config, some javascript games need services
    re-enabled, etc.

    Shoot me a mail if there's something particular you wanted fixed ASAP.

    More info/setup: goldminebbs.com

    Hi,
    I should have dropped a echomail somewhere here on FSXNet as I saw it
    was down. :(
    (I've been trying to reach it the last couple weeks, to no avail)

    Ah, yeah that will take awhile. (Yay, thank you so much for your hard
    work, with running gOLD mINE and keeping it's doors working)

    (So I guess BRE's dumb INUSE.FLG will get blown away, from when I did
    the dumb hangup on it... I painfully regret doing that... aways back. So
    sorry for adding to the list of work)

    No rush here, while I heavily use gold mine here on Lunar Mod, I can't
    think of anything that needs ASAP treatment.

    Thank you for your work on gOLD mINE.

    Take Care,
    Apollo

    No worries -- I hope to re-launch my BBS soon (Space Junk!) so it'll be easier to have a dedeicated support sub. I'll take a look at BRE

    Thank you for your work on gOLD mINE.

    You're welcome! Trying to remember how I had Yankee Trader running previously, dying to get that back up.
