Had an email from Janis indicating her system is down ... just sayin'

Does that mean that we don't have to expect any problems with her Gert connection then?

Hello Wilfred!

her Gert connection then?

I've netmailed with Vince some weeks ago. Ho does not want to have link redundandy. He is connected with me, but on his request "receive only"
by my system.

I can connect to Janis, so the problem is probably resolved already...

He has his reasons to run his system this way and it's not up to me to disclose that here.

Well, you have revealed he has special reasons, and made us curious. Sounds like gossip...

I hardly believe it's gossip.

Vince simply hasn't bought into the idea of the Fidoweb and still thinks the the NAB Star-system ditribution has some value. That feeding from a Star-node positions you more close to the center of the Fido-universe ... which it doesn't. But if that misconception makes him happy and the mail moves ... 'What? Me worry?"

This is more speculation about Vince motives == Gossip! ;-)

His reasons are not that special but i really don't want to reveal that
is it's none of our business. He has his reasons (several of them) and
i respect them. But feel free to ask him directly via netmail.

Back to the topic: Janis' system is not connectable now.

I cannot process echos from two sources without getting a lot of Duplicate echo's etc. Files are slightly easier but also a problem.

Her system appears to be up now.

As of about 20 minutes ago, you'd be correct.

Yes, down again.

Some people need to understand that once in a while I do know what I'm talking about. After being 'up' for a short while Janis's system crashed. This is what I got from here:

I should have the new system set up in a few days... Now that I know I can
contact people with other email programs like gmail and yahoo mail, I'll be
taking my system down (again that is... it crashed last night) and I'll
install postfix and other packages on the new box.

Wondering what I'm missing here... What's the big whoop-de-doo about
whether her system is up, or not? Does it really much matter in the
big picture of things?

People are acting like it's a national defense crisis, or something.

Daniel,

i think that Ward tries to point on the neverending star system vs.
fidoweb debate. :)

Think again ...

Janis' absence has been noted, people jump to conclusions while I was in the position to provide acurate information, which I did.

The rest is nonsense ...

National from whose point of view?

The system of a sysop with some prominence went down and we're now looking forward to her re-emergence ... Nice to know, no?

Doesn't matter. The point was that a big deal is being made over
nothing.

Ummmm..... yeah OK, if you say so.
