[44net] New to the Group

Hello everyone, I am new to the group. I am the sysop of a new BBS kq6up.ampr.org. I just recently got back in to packet radio, and found a lot of renewed interest in packet radio in my local area. I decided to put up another JNOS BBS. It has been about 10 years since I have had a BBS. I have had more users in the past month (from the radio port) than I did over entire lifetime of my last BBS. I can connect to almost everyone that I have tried to in the ampr-net world. I am building my tunnels in Linux. I am having connectivity issues with two host (both have fresh encap.txt files). I can't connect or ping k6hr.ampr.org, nor can he ping me. I can ping and connect to GVCITY.ampr.org, but pinging towards my side is flakey for him. Should I try running RIP and forget about it, or are these problems fairly easy to track down and fix? Thanks, Chris Maness
