Hi Marius
Thank You. It took me awhile to understand how BPQ32 BBS software worked,
It will take me awhile to understand the terminology. I bombarded John
GB9BPQ and Mike N9PMO to get my (2) system running through the BPQ network.
Now we are trying to get AMPRnet.
For info: I did run a DOS BBS way back before the internet. I was on
Fidonet and SLnet. Now I run 2 BPQ BBS with help from my mentor N9pmo. I
have no computer training other than what I picked up over time. Meshing
and LAN set up is Greek to me, I only learn by doing
I will be asking some very stupid question. Please forgive..Stupid is
opposite to Smart, and we have some very smart people here
later

Hi Don,
First of all, it is enough to add that 44.135.192.160/29 subnet, there is
no need to add the individual hosts.
But your IPs are not ok.
For 44.135.192.160/29, 160 is the network address, and 167 the broadcast
address.
This allows you to use 161 to 166 as valid IPs.
So I would propose:
va7dgp.ampr.org 44.135.192.161
va7tsa.ampr.org 44.135.192.162
bpq.va7dgp.ampr.org 44.135.192.163
bpq.va7tsa.ampr.org 44.135.192.164
and this leaves space for 2 more IPs in that subnet (165 and 166).
The names of the hosts have to be registered via the DNS robot, not the
portal, which has to be solved by your local coordinator, again, no need to
add them individually in the portal.
