ftp access to encap.txt
by k7ilo＠outlook.com 06 Oct '22

06 Oct '22

Hey gang. Kinda new here for Ive been dabbling with this for a few years though. I have been trying to use the ampr-ripd daemon without any luck and have come to the conclusion that my ISP blocks port 520 which I believe is the port used. With that said, i have also come to the conclusion that at this time, the encap.txt file is still accessible via ftp from the portal.ampr.org. Is "wget ftp://USER:PASSWORD@portal.ampr.org/encap.txt" a valid ftp solution and if so where is the USER:PASSWORD derived from? Is it our user:password into the portal? Thanks all Harold K7ILO

Comments and questions welcome: Portal Features Requirements Document
by Rosy Schechter - KJ7RYV 03 Oct '22

03 Oct '22

Hello 44Net! For quite some time, y'all have heard rumblings of a new portal, which Chris has been working on bit by bit. Realizing that it's likely a larger project than we initially thought, earlier this year the TAC took on the task of writing a feature requirements document. This has been the bulk of their work this year so far, and I'm really proud of the results, which were completed just a couple weeks ago. I'm writing on behalf of the TAC to share this document with you and to request comments and comments: https://www.ampr.org/wp-content/uploads/2022-09-Portal-Features-Requirement… Ideally, please share your thoughts in this channel rather than emailing directly, though of course we will read any feedback you send. Pierre, the TAC Chair, will be watching the list and answering any questions that may come up. Note that this document is a feature requirements document - which outlines the features that the portal needs to have before it's considered "done." By definition, it's *not* an engineering document; we've purposefully not specified the exact technology we'll use to build this out. We have, however, specified that it will be released as an open source project as soon as we have a functional version, likely without all features present. Ultimately this will be a project managed by our new Director of Technology (who starts on Monday; will introduce after he starts) and the team he assembles to carry out the build. Thus, information like timelines, project plans, and database specifications, etc., will follow his review of this document and any comments from this group. And with that, I say - happy reading! And thank you so much for your thoughts and questions. Looking forward, Rosy -- Rosy Schechter - KJ7RYV Executive Director Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC) ampr.org

re axip amprnet traffic problem
by Libor Berka 29 Sep '22

29 Sep '22

Hello I started to have that problem to receive no response from 169.228.34.84 using ampr-ripd program. I had en old net modem changed by my provider for HGB10R-021 modem to have more internet speed and really there is not possible to configure protocol-4, only TCP USB or BOTH. So I am already more weeks without axip links. I have no idea how to resolve this problem. 73 Libor, sysop of OK2PEN-5 amprnet gate IP 44.63.16.113.

Hi all, I recently found some time to translate our report from the HAM RADIO 2022 hamfest in Friedrichshafen. I thought it might be of interest what we are doing with the 44Net resources. Please jump to the "HAMNET" chapter and read on to get an idea of our usage: https://www.darc.de/fileadmin/filemounts/referate/vus/tagungen/2022/HAMNET_… 73, Jann DG8NGN Member of the IP-Coordination Germany -- Jann Traschewski, Faber-Castell-Str. 9, D-90522 Oberasbach, Germany Tel.: +49-911-99946898, Mobile: +49-170-1045937, E-Mail: jann(a)gmx.de Ham: DG8NGN / DB0VOX / DB0FOX / DB0ZM / DB0DBA / DB0HZS / DB0RUS

BGP LOA Generation?
by Jonathan Lassoff 26 Sep '22

26 Sep '22

Is anybody else having a hard time getting updated LOA documents? Chris kindly asked me to fill a text form and email back to chris [at] ardc.net. For a couple weeks, I had trouble with delivering mail to ardc.net after my MTA (Gmail) apparently got marked as a spammer. This seems to have since been resolved, and it seems like my emails are getting delivered. However, I haven't heard back from Chris for a couple months, and I'm wondering if everything is working ok for others, or if somehow I've done something wrong. Hoping all is well with the ARDC crew and Chris, but I'm left a bit stuck and temporarily offline until I can get an updated LOA. Help? Cheers, jof

Fwd: SK N1URO's mail server/domain

All, I sent this warning - it never made it to the mailing list. -- KB3VWG -----Original Message----- From: lleachii(a)aol.com To: 44net(a)mailman.ampr.org <44net(a)mailman.ampr.org> Sent: Mon, Jun 27, 2022 10:00 am Subject: SK N1URO's mail server/domain All, I received SPAM email from the domain GMX DOT net. As some of you may know, this was one of the email domains the late N1URO used. Perhaps it is coincidence; but it seems that maybe (at minimum) his contact list may have been compromised. Be aware. 73, - Lynwood KB3VWG

All, Can someone send me a web URL link to the 44-net mailing list off-list please? The current body no longer includes a link. I have not received emails for months, so I'd like to read up - also, I need to get a password/activate digest. 73, - Lynwood KB3VWG

All, After re-subscribing was complete (which doesn't inform you've been approved), things are well and I'm receiving emails again. I just need to re-activate digest. I'm not sure why I was unsubscribed. I appreciate those who gave me a signal report. -- KB3VWG

Notes from Regional Coordinators Focus Group
by Rosy Schechter - KJ7RYV 13 Sep '22

13 Sep '22

Hello 44Net, As part of our 44Net assessment project, we're putting together a couple of focus groups. These discussions are really helpful for going deeper into some of the ideas presented in the survey. After all, no questionnaire can ever replace real dialogue. A few weeks ago, we had a focus group dedicated to regional coordinators. Thank you Marius Petrescu YO2LOG, David Ranch KI6ZHD, and Gabriel Medinas YV5KXE for showing up! Despite the small turnout, we had some important discussion – about the need for greater transparency around decisions related to the address space, the need for making 44Net easier to use, and the ways that regional coordinators want to help and be a part of the discussion. The idea of PoPs came up as well, as well as thoughts about the portal and much more. In service of transparency and open dialogue, I encourage you, particularly if you are a Regional Coordinator, to review the notes from the meeting: https://www.ampr.org/wp-content/uploads/2022-08-regional-coordinators-focus… Questions for all, but regional coordinators in particular: what do you think about the challenges / solutions presented? Is there something you'd like to see addressed or added that's not listed? Please share your thoughts on the list. If you'd like to be a part of the next focus group, happening on Sept. 23 and for more general 44net users, please get in touch with Merideth, cc'd. She can add you to the participant list. Some of you may also be wondering what's going on with the data and information from the survey. We're in the process of cleaning up the data (e.g. removing personally identifiable information, codifying text based responses). We'll let you know when we plan to have a report ready; we're solidifying those details now. Thanks for your patience. I will be out of the office for a few days, but John Hays K7VE – ARDC staff and a regional coordinator for Western Washington – is on hand to answer questions that may come up. I look forward to jumping back in when I return next week. Many thanks and all the best, Rosy -- Rosy Schechter - KJ7RYV Executive Director Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC) ampr.org
