  • BAD QWK Network Packets

    From Dumas Walker@VERT/CAPCITY2 to DIGITAL MAN on Fri Mar 13 16:44:00 2020
    Good afternoon,
    I am a hub for a QWK network. One of my connections, also a synchronet
    system, is picking up packets here and, when his system tries to toss them, they are being marked as BAD.

    I am about to ask him for additional information but thought I would ask if there are any likely causes for that? Also, I am not familiar with this
    issue, so would the reason it gets marked BAD (and not tossed) show up in a
    log somewhere?

    Thanks!

    Yes, the reasons for the bad packet detection should be in the log output.
