Also the experience with automation projects is that they often get stranded partly
completed, for all kinds of reasons. The question often is what is better: a working
manual system or a partially finished automated system that does not offer the
flexibility that a manual system has.
(e.g. w.r.t. correcting mistakes, accommodating special situations, handling a large
batch of updates, etc)

Kind if wondering the status of this myself.
Perhaps the easiest would be to amend the present email robot to ask
for a username and password field (kind of how the old gateways robot
worked) so the end user can edit their own entries?

Hi
When I perform a IPR this is what I show for me
44.125.10.0/29 0 0.0.0.0 E 0 0 Locked
I don't understand ? what it is showing ?
My IP is 44.125.10.1 Network 44.125.10.0/24
Also how do I make sure or determine the correct IPNETMASK ?
Is this the same as my subnet mask when I perform a ipconfig ?
Then what would be my correct IPNetmask ?
On my BPQ32 config file do I still MAP to a IP ADDRESS ?
My NAT 44.125.10.2 (Within my APRNET) 192.168.0.198 ( My ip address of my
BPQ32 computer)

Ok let see. I'm going to say correct me if I'm wrong is that I need to
upgrade my
Router to a more current model. I'm using a D-Link DIR-615 that I picked up
at a thrift store for $7.00 U.S.. Don't laugh !!!
Ok what would be a choice for a router that would fit the bill !!
Still showing up
44.125.10.0/24 0 0.0.0.0 E 0 0 Locked

On my BPQ32 Console I have the following error
Adding route to 44/8 failed
This is the only error that I have there.

My assumption was false
Sorry. 73 I'll need to sit down sometime however and figure out how things that do work on the portal only actually work. Not had time. May never. On Jan 2, 2016 11:02 AM, Brian Kantor <Brian(a)UCSD.Edu> wrote:

Was there no spammy message in the free text area of the request?
(this is forwarded as a separate attachment by the portal)
Normally spammers use methods like this (filling in forms on websites) to spread some form of spam, at the
minimum some URL of a website they want you to go to. But maybe in this case it was not spam or phishing but an
attempt to get something registered. Some users are very confused about how to use the AMPR net.
Unfortunately when you do a reject on a portal request that fact is always mailed back to the e-mail contact, I have asked for
a way to silently remove requests so invalid requests like this can be deleted without resulting in a mail to an innocent person
or invoke another reply by the requester.
I think it has not yet been implemented.
