How loud is the 7720?
Nowhere near an 8650. :-)

Hello Stuart,
Yes we did try and in fact it revealed an important bug which is fixed. What we failed to resolve, as I recall, was an apparent problem with some adjacencies yo-yoing up and down. I too was having a similar problem at the time, but that turned out to be a bad switch I had on my network, the adjacency is pretty solid now. I would be very happy to try again. Please download the latest from CodePlex (route20.codeplex.com) and build it. Someone has also told me it won t compile on FreeBSD so I am going to see if I can fix that too.
Regards
Rob

I have just downloaded the spec and will think about how easy it would be to add this to the router, not that anyone other than me uses it :-(
Well, I tried pretty hard (with you) to get it working, but it really wasn't happy, was it?
I'm game for some more diagnostics if you fancy?

My bridge goes NUTS when I connect to update - I get dozens of hashes per second and my DECNET routing breaks completely.
Any ideas why this is happening? Am I the only one with this problem?

I'm having some problems with the bridge, I seem to see an awful lot of hashes from update, which then borks all my connectivity.
Going to try to go with the MULTINET tunnel to area 19 for now.

If you don't want to send me a HLP file I can now automatically generate
one from your INFO.TXT file.
Let me know if you want your node added to the automatically generated
help file list.

add nikkel (44.21) to the list Sampsa

You could send me a list of nodes to pull iNFO.TXT off for now :)
Then work on some funkier .HLP files later.

It was :)
In any case, the INFO.TXT puller is quite clever, it strips out the .BEGIN-HECNET-INFO -
.END-HECNET-INFO bits out, I figured no use for those in a help file :)
