The file name has changed to fsxnet.zip .. all other behaviours remain the
same with it too being sent to the FSX_INFO file base, and the same weekly
'replace' command being used to swap out old version with new.

Thanks to everyone who has started to adjust their roBOT posts in FSX_BOT to
point to the newly created echomail areas for BOTs. A reminder to areafix
these new echos so your HUB starts to feed you them or contact your HUB
admin to get them manually added for you :)
2020-10-26
Created FSX_TST Test messages and other experimentation is welcome here!
Messages using the subject of 'Test' *should* receive an
automated response from a roBOT. Humans can also appear
magically with reports too. Your mileage may vary. Offer
is not available at Vanda Station.
Created FSX_ADS BBS and NETwork Ads. Run a BBS you want to tell the world
about? Use a roBOT or manually post your BBS ASCII / ANSI
ads here. Please don't post the same thing more than once a
week (7 days). Let's keep it 'minty fresh' - too much of the
same thing usually ends in a diet :)
Created FSX_STA Echomail + Network Stats. The echoarea for roBOT posts
about echomail area stats, BBS mailer traffic and gateway
activity. FTN network stats / reports are also posted here.
Some people read them cover to cover while others like
horoscopes better :)
Created FSX_FIL File Announcements. I like files, you like files, we all
like files! This echoarea contains roBOT posts covering files
received by fsxNet member BBS or files hatched from fsxNet
HUBS to the wider community.
With the creation of the new echoareas there have been some tweaks to the
descriptions and usage of existing echomail areas. Please note the following
updated info for these echos:
FSX_BOT - We welcome non-human roBOT output here. Gated or original content
(e.g. weather, telemetry, entertainment etc.) lives here. BBS ads
(FSX_ADS) , echomail stats (FSX_STA) or file announcements (FSX_FIL)
live elsewhere.
FSX_GEN - A general discussion echoarea covering many topics.

experimentation is welcome.
Este echoarea ofrece un lugar para conversaciones en español.
Al igual que FSX_GEN, es una discusión general que abarca muchos
temas. Mensajes de prueba y otros experimentos son bienvenidos.
Sub domain aliases have been created for NET 1-5 using the fsxnet.nz domain
name. This means you can now use the following to poll each HUB if you wish:
net1.fsxnet.nz - NET 1 (21:1/100)
net2.fsxnet.nz - NET 2 (21:2/100)
net3.fsxnet.nz - NET 3 (21:3/100)
net4.fsxnet.nz - NET 4 (21:4/100)
net5.fsxnet.nz - NET 5 (21:5/100)
Prior domain names associated with each HUB will still work but it's hoped
this may make things easier for folks setting up their BBS wanting to quickly
enter domain name address details for any given fsxNet HUB. FSXNET.TXT has
been updated accordingly.

2019-12-25 Merry Christmas :)
Thanks for being part of fsxNet and keeping the BBS scene
alive and active. It's been great to see how popular BBSing
and echomail message networking remains in 2019. Here's to a
fun, simple and experimental 2020.
Look for a few nodes to be pruned in the coming weeks as some
sysops setup and then disappear failing to let HUB admins know
they are shutting down. This seems to be part and parcel of how
things can roll... but it's a PITA to keep the nodelist up to
date. :(
2019-12-19
Updated 1/100 The NET 1 HUB has (for now) moved to a combo of BinkD for
mailer and HPT for tossing packets. There are some concerns
with the current version of Mystic (1.12 A43) in the way
packets are being processed and/or sent. This change is a
precaution until the author (g00r00) can have a look at the
code.

Mystic BBS turns 20 years young!
I just wanted to note the efforts of author James Coyle aka g00r00 who today
posted in fsx_mys his thanks for everyones interest and involvement in his
Mystic BBS project that has been running for the last 20 years. Think on
that for a moment - 20 years!
It's no mean feat to sustain an interest in something for so long and
continue to develop it with the same levels of passion and excitement that
first spurred the interest to do so all those years ago.
For me coming back in to the BBSing scene around 2013 and coming across Mystic
was a welcome sign to me that the scene was not dead and that there was much
fun to be had with the old hobby/interest that I had last dabbled in in
back in 1994.
In 2017 there are a number of BBS platforms under active development. We're
lucky to have a bunch of talented people active in fsxNet who continue to
contribute their skills and passions to the vibrancy of the BBS scene
by creating new BBS software, doors, utils, ANSI art etc.
James is certainly one of those people. On behalf of all of the users,
sysops, tinkerers, wannabe coders, debuggers who love to test and find
stuff that may be broken (or not :)) and everyone in between playing in the
BBS scene. Thank you James for you continued contribution to our collectively
enjoyed hobby, it's really appreciated.
Updates to HUBs 1/100 2/100 3/100
Today I have been working on updating the software on all fsxNet HUBS active
at present. They are now all in sync and use the same version of Mystic BBS.
Which at the time of writing this is 1.12 A37 pre-alpa version 2017/12/13
At the same time of doing these updates I have changed the way netmail is
routed between the HUBs. In short the rules to deliver netmail between NETs
has been updated to prevent a circular loop occurring where undeliverable
netmail could end up bouncing between various NETs. I have also established
direct links between NET 2 and NET 3 to speed up delivery of netmail where as
before this, all netmail between NET 2 and NET 3 was routed via NET 1
I am now also starting to look at establishing a NET 4 to accommodate ongoing
growth experienced with new nodes joining fsxNet. The thinking being not
wanting to have HUB with large numbers of nodes (70+) attached and instead
add more HUBs serving smaller numbers (30-40) of nodes. If we do opt to fully
mesh all the HUBs for echomail traffic, whilst it would generate a fair
amount of DUPE traffic between the HUBs it would also help to build greater
redundancy and resilience across the wider fsxNet. Well that's what I think
would happen - but you're feedback and thoughts are most welcome :)
Welcome new nodes :)

fsxNet Nodelist Housekeeping
I have begun to prune the nodelist after waiting a week to gauge replies and
responses to my attempts to contact nodes flagged for attention on Sept 2nd.
Some systems have contacted me and I am working with them to try and sorts
any issues. Others have been silent so they are being pruned from the
nodelist for now.
They are (as always) welcome to re-apply and rejoin but I am not going to
store traffic at 21:1/100 for a node that may reappear or may not.
Removed Node 1/167 SilentShard BBS (NZL) Nick has contacted me and confirmed
his system is down for now. He may reapply again in the

to be successful and there is no reply from his BBS at the
last known ddns.net domain name. Node has been delisted.
There are still some nodes I am chasing up to confirm if they are going to
reconnect to fsxNet or if the sysop is not going to do anything soon to do so.
Some may still be removed if a firm track of proposed activity is not
demonstrated in a timely fashion.
I am also working to identify a few nodes that I know are running and polling
1/100 correctly but for some reason(s) their known domain names are not
resolving and allow the HUB to poll them. I'll write about that in a separate
update when this round of NET 1 nodelist admin concludes.

fsxNet Nodelist Housekeeping
The following NET 1 systems have been flagged for potential deletion due to
inactivity for some time (weeks or in some cases months!) I have attempted
to contact each sysop and hope to hear back from them within the next seven
(7) days else they risk removal from the nodelist.
For now the following systems have been marked as 'Down' in the nodelist:
21:1/ 135, 136, 139, 140, 142, 144, 150, 155, 164, 167, 168, 171, 177, 180,
183, 190, 197
A further review of the above nodes will occur one week from today.

Over the coming weeks I will be doing some work on the nodelist. I want to

to be marked as 'Down' and the removed if no longer active or responding to
attempts to contact the sysop. I'll keep you posted on this housekeeping as
I progress it. Of course if your system is active and polling a HUB then you
really have nothing to worry about :)

Created FSX_BBS - BBS software development and support. This echoarea also
hosts fsxNet Wiki (wiki.bbs.geek.nz) discussions and
support.
With the creation of the fsxNet Wiki it seems appropriate
to have a public space to discuss ideas for possible new
Wiki content, edits to current content, editor requests,
questions about what is on the Wiki etc. My hope is that
as the content on the Wiki grows, this echo area will
support that growth as a place for discussions about it.
A reminder that there was an orignal FSX_BBS created
as a file echo. It was changed to FSX_SOFT on 2016-09-10
as part of a renaming convention to decern between message
base echoarea tags and file base tags file area tags are
always four characters long where as message tags are
three. e.g. FSX_BBS vs FSX_SOFT

## Happy New Year - Best wishes for 2017 and your BBSing adventures ahead ##
Created - NET 2 - The start of a creating new access points for fsxNet
traffic. New nodes to the network will be added to NET 2
which is now served by a new HUB at 21:2/100
Created - HUB 2 - The Tholian HUB has been established at 21:2/100.
This new HUB will serve nodes in NET 2. Big thanks to
Solaris at Error 404 for establishing this new Mystic
powered system :) The HUB can be found at
error404bbs.ddns.net:24555
Updated - fsxNet Nodelist
I've made some changes to the nodelist that reflect the addition of the new
NET and HUB. Instead of creating new 'Regions' I have opted to stick with one
for now (Region 21 - was Region 1).
I have also revised things and now assigned 'Host' notation to the what are
now NET 1 and 2. They fly the 21:1/0 and 21:2/0 AKA's held by each net
coordinator. HUB addresseing remains as 21:xx/100 and HUBs send/recieve
all traffic with CRASH priority between them as echomail etc. is generated
around fsxNet. So HUBs fly at /0 and /100 AKA's for their respective NETs.
Also changed is the flag notation used against each node in the nodelist.
I have tried to ensure flags used are current and comply with the Fidonet
Technical Standards Committee document FTSC-5001. Copies of this document
are available from http://www.ftsc.org/docs/ if you are interested :)
Further, the epiloge in the nodelist has been paired right back to remove the
unwanted and/or non-relevant nodelist flags. A brief nod to the URL mentioned
above remains for interested sysops etc. if they want more info.
Updated - HISTORY.TXT - notation tweaks.
I am working to keep this document as easy to read as I can and due to the
new NET (and more to come) I have made minor changes to layout and notation
of this file and will do so in the future. You'll see this in new nodes
being added, removed etc.

2016-12-08
Removed - Node 5 - Opted to delist this system as it will only ever talk with
/10 and does not need it's own node listing.
Updated - Node 10 - Now referred to as the Usenet Gateway. Allows fsxNet
nodes that want access to a bi-directional FTN<>NNTP
gateway for offering Usenet newsgroups on their BBS.
I know it's word semantics but I think it's better to
get the naming correct for the future. I want to avoid
confusion when using words like HUBs etc.

Removed - Node 101 - Agency BBS
I was experimenting with using region 2 as a means to distribute Usenet
newsgroups to nodes that want a bi-directional FTN<>NNTP gateway.
Using 21:2/xxx addresses have now been retired in favour of using
21:1/xxx addresses. It makes it easier for all at present to run things
this way.

new members to provide their static ipv4 and/or ipv6 addresses (if they
have one) when signing up. This will allow their nodes to be whitelisted

Added - Node 173 - Added Sinclair Retro BBS (ITA) to the Usenet HUB
as 21:2/173 and now feeding a variety of retro computing
newsgroups to Outsoft.
Removed - GOODIP.TXT - I can see how this is going to get out of date quite
quickly for systems that are using a dynamic IP address.
I think for now I am going to remove the list from the
infopack. I think it's a good idea but I need to think
through how to best implement it in a way that ensures
it's current. I just don't have the time to maintain it
manually.
2016-10-03
Added - Node 173 - Sinclair Retro BBS (ITA) Welcome to Simone_Voltolini

changes to fsxNet. It is used by the fsxnet MPL script written by Xqtr.

2016-09-10
Renamed - FSX_ART to FSX_ARTS - ANSI Art - Groups, Individuals etc.
Renamed - FSX_BBS to FSX_SOFT - BBS Software (Current + Legacy)
Two of the file bases have been renamed to accomodate a new standardised
naming convention I am applying to fsxNet.
All message echoareas will use a FSX_XXX convention while all file bases
carried by the NET will use a FSX_XXXX style of tag.
The thinking here is to make it simple to spot a file base tag from a
echoarea/ message base tags. I also wanted to pull some current FSX_XXX
tags off their currently assigned file bases should we end up using them
for echoareas in the future.
So - if you are carrying one (or both) of the following file areas can you
please ammend the EchoTag for each in your BBS setup as follows.
FSX_ART to FSX_ARTS
FSX_BBS to FSX_SOFT
No files will be hatched to these areas until Saturday 17 September (NZST)
this gives folks a week (at minimum) to update their tags / settings.
Created - FSX_CRY - Cryptographic discussion and experimentation.
Public key sharing, encoded messages, testing etc.
is welcome here.
An area of interest for some members of the NET. This is a place to
further this type of discussion and experimentation.
Created - NEWS.TXT - this is a news file that will carry info about
changes to fsxNet and is intended for future use as part of another
project that's underway. Details to come when there is more to share.
2016-09-08

2016-09-04
Two new echoarea have been added to fsxNet. All nodes have been connected to
them by default but feel free to delink if you don't want this traffic.
The infopack has been updated with new echoarea details.
Created - FSX_MYS - Mystic BBS discussions, support and development.
Created - FSX_BOT - The first choice for non-human roBOT output.
May contain BBS and NET ads, stats reports, telemetry reports,
traces of nuts etc. Set your BOT free in this area :)
2016-09-02
Removed - FSX_NETS - BBS Networks, Infopacks, Nodelists file base.
Renamed - FSX_NODE - Weekly Nodelists (fsxNet, etc.)
Renamed - FSX_INFO - Weekly Infopacks (fsxNet, etc.)
I am starting to cut down and rationalise some of the file areas on the NET.
Contents posted to this area will be migrated to FSX_INFO and FSX_NODE so that
both of those file bases carry not just fsxNet infopacks and nodelists but
also the equivalent files for other NETs. I figure this is a smarter way to
use the file bases. And I really want to support other NETs.
The added upside of this is that if you are using Mystic to import nodelists
for a [MergeNodelists] MUTIL activity then you can start to point all of your
nodefile=\path\to\nodelist statements to the same file base :)
Update - Usenet Newsgroups
I'm experimenting with using net 2 as a means to distribute Usenet
newsgroups to nodes that want a bi-directional FTN<>NNTP gateway.
Using 21:2/xxx addresses may be the way to do this. Have addded some new
nodes to help with testing that will start soon. Still a work in progress.

(his words) with echomail etc. and having fun.
Welcome rEApZ, nice to have you in the NET + bolstering
the Australian membership. I think the Aussies have
caught up with the Kiwis now :)
Changed - Node 129 - SpaceSST BBS (CAN) Luc has advised he has major hardware
problems and has no time at present to rebuild his system
nor will not invest money in hardware to fix it.
So I have marked his system as DOWN for now and made his
node inactive. Let's see if he returns or not?

Revised - file_id.diz
I am having some issues processing infopack hatching when I include the
