• Another ftelnet test request

    From Charlie@VERT/COFFEE to All on Fri Apr 6 00:58:48 2018
    I made a few changes and I think I may have both the ftelnet ("web telnet" in Additional Services on the home page) and the External Programs (door games) working in the web interface (finally), but I can't test them myself because I can't hairpin. Any volunteers to test these for me? You have to have an account and be logged in to get to the External Programs.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Charlie, I tried to connect to your system and actually the ftelnet web
    part works! My instead says that can not connect what settings did you use?

    My services.ini contains the following:

    It was working for me last night using my local LAN IP address rather than the domain name, then at around midnight it stopped working and also gave me the . I don't know if that was from something I'd done or what. That's around the time I decided to ask others to test it too.

    And I tested it again locally, just now, and it's working again! I didn't change anything in the configuration at all between the time it stopped working and now. It must be those darn packet pixies playing tricks on me.

    Hmm, I wonder what I was about to type next? Anyway, it stopped working at around midnight: I got the ftelnet screens but it said "unable to connect", and then it was working again this morning. The BBS itself was still working, or else I wouldn't have been able to post a test request. Pretty strange.

    I doubt if this is the source of your trouble, but these two services are configured to bind to the same interface and port. One of them (probably [WebSocket-Telnet]) should be removed.

    OK, I commented out the entire [Websoket-Telnet] section. I only added it because at one point when I went to the External Programs page it told me to add it. Anyway, the door games are still launching even with that commented out so I'll leave it that way. (I had a feeling that one or the other should be removed as they both referenced the same port number but I didn't know which one should stay and which should go. Thanks.)
