Hi All

As you know I have a new Linux fpac switch up and running. We still have a 
lot of things to get tweaked in and here is one that I can use some help with.

I need to have my bbs beacon which is on port 4 beacon across the rose 
switch (I don't have netrom set up) to my port 3 to go out over the air on 
the LAN. I am using FBB and bpq for the kiss interface to a null modem 
cable to connect to the fpac box. When I was running dos fpac I was able to 
have it beacon across the ports with no problem using Beacon1.sys in fbb 
and it worked with no problems. With the new setup I tried to use      ! 
MAIL V W4AKH-3  to get it to go across the switch. The dos box had a call 
of n4xeo on it the same as the bbs and now with the linux box the call is 
different. The above will not work to get from port 4 to port 3. I do see 
the beacon going out on port 4 so I know that fbb/bpq is getting it to the 
switch it just won't cross ports...

Any ideas???

I am planning on adding linfbb to the box down the road once I learn what 
I'm doing so it will be a while..

Thanks

Think about it .....
