But now when i try connecting, i get a repeated "2" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pab Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Weird. "2" is the numeric response for "RING." The modem should have been set up to auto answer. I was going to go through some long debugging steps, but in the end I think we might as well just pretend it's a 1030. 893 INPUT #C2,L$:IF L$="2" THEN ? #C2;"ATA{^}m";:GOTO 820 894 INPUT #C2,L$:BAUD$=L$:? L$:IF L$<>"1" AND L$<>"5" AND L$<>"10" AND L$<>"12" AND L$<>"15" AND L$<>"16" THEN 820 895 GOSUB 8953 896 POKE 77,I:? "{esc}{clear}";:TRAP ETR:POKE 752,O:POKE 82,O:POKE C7,O:GOSUB 481:U=-I:GOSUB SF:MSE=O Replace the carat contained text in 893 with CTRL-M. Replace the {esc}{clear} in 896 with a clear screen character. This way, if the modem sends a "RING" message, the BBS will send the answer command in case the auto-answer is screwed up.

rickcollette Posted November 29, 2023 Author Share Posted November 29, 2023 (edited) Applied the changes - not much of a difference. Also @Pab - I dm'd you a video. I wonder if my "modem" settings are incorrect - attached are the screens. Incidentally - I ended up with these particular settings just trying different combos.

Did this - still cannot connect to the bbs Changed the connectivity options per yours and amis suggestions. My goal is to be in parity with what you are doing in altirra - then once this works, see if i can get it going on a 130xe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pab Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 The connection and handshaking over Telnet converted to modem by Altirra can take a while. I've had to wait 30 seconds or more to connect. Are you giving it enough time? Weird thought: if you're running Altirra on PC for the BBS, can you connect through Bobterm running on Atari800Mac?

I let it sit for about a minute just in case - no go. I did try from the mac - no go there either. I am pretty much convinced at this point that I am just not configuring something properly.

We've set up special instances of the Zoom meet in the past to look at specific things, we could always do that again if we agree on a time. More of a "working session".

I'm thinking tomorrow is a little early notice in case some people other than us are interested. How about the 17th? 3pm eastern? (Or propose an alternate). I think we're all eastern? It will also give us time to promote it a bit during the 3rd Friday call (12/15 at 8pm Eastern). And you read my mind on the newest build Pab! If both of you are good with this, I'll create the meeting and post the link (and spread the news around) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pab Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 It will push me to finish work on a new feature while debugging. I’m changing the menus from being hard coded in data statements to configured in files to allow a lot more customization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tillek Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Sounds like we have ourselves a plan..... Sunday, December 17th at 3pm Eastern US. I have it set for 3 hours, but it can last as long as we want it to. https://tinyurl.com/AtariLink-WS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pab Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 New build, 2023-12-17 Changes since last build: * When using SELECT key to log in locally, will now wait for all console keys to be released before performing local login. Avoids accidentally banning your own account. * Y2K compliance: Years from 80-99 assumed to be 20th century, all others 21st. * Deletes DOORPASS on successful return from external program, preventing perma-log of last user. * Fix to FTX crashing under Altirra BASIC. (Note: no configuration file changes have been made so you will not have to reinstall or run a converter program. Just copy these files over top of your existing install.)
