|#2M> |#5|#9D>|#5 I'm currently using the (almost latest 5.5.x dev, I
|#2M> |#5|#9D>|#5 see a commit was made yesterday) with the native
|#2M> |#5|#9D>|#5 Linux Network applications. I joined WWIVnet @124,
|#2M> |#5|#9D>|#5 Email appears to be working, however 
|#2M> |#5|#9D>|#5 I can't seam to get subs
|#2M> |#5|#9D>|#5 to load right. Anybody here willing to give me some
|#2M> |#5|#9D>|#5 pointers on the Linux network configs?
|#2M>
|#2M> |#0Nice to se eyou on here. I'm sure one of the several people on
|#2M> |#0here running the Linux version would be able to assist.

So here's what I have set up so far.  I haven't done this from
scratch in a while, so hopefully this will make sense.

Basically, everything is driven by the wwivd service now. You
don't need any cron jobs, special layouts, or running the WFC

First, the contents of the config and systemd files.  Doing it
this way, you can set the verbosity, which will give you more
details in the logs. VERBOSE=1 will probably be enough to see the
problem, VERBOSE=2 gives a LOT more, and VERBOSE=3 is just nuts.

wwiv@beaglebbs:~$ ls -laR /etc/wwiv/

This callout calls every 15 minutes, and the password needs to
match what is configured on @1.  

wwiv@beaglebbs:~$ ls -l nets/wwivnet/callout.net
-rw------- 1 wwiv wwiv 76 Mar 15 08:21 nets/wwivnet/callout.net

wwiv@beaglebbs:~/nets/wwivnet$ cat callout.net
@1     & /15               "yourpassword"


And the settings in wwivconfig (in particular, the Net receive
and Net callout):

You can also customize the behavior of individual network*
processes by setting up a net.ini in the root WWIV directory:

wwiv@beaglebbs:~$ cat net.ini
[network]
skip_net = N
crc = Y
#v = 1

[networkb]
skip_net = N
crc = Y
#v = 2

[networkc]
skip_net = N
crc = Y
#v = 1

Hope that helps a bit.  If you have more specific questions, let
me know. Also, I'm on the IRC channel pretty much all the time if
you want more immediate feedback.
