I will continue to do so.ã TKãã---ã þ Synchronet þ telnet://talamasca-bbs.com http://www.talamasca-bbs.comã

Take for example:ããVERTã |_TALAMASCã |_YOURBBSã |_HISBBSã |_HERBBSã |_THEIRBBSããFor someone to send netmail from YOURBBS to THEIRBBS, the route would not goãthrough VERT (even though, technically VERT is the hub for TALAMASC).ããIn a QWKnet topology, the hub with the most nodes is the "central" hub. It'sãnot a title, it's a state. Right now (and for the foreseeable future),ãTalamasca is still the DOVE-Net "central" hub. :-)ããRobã---ã þ Synchronet þ Vertrauen þ Home of Synchronet þ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.netã

RE: Admin? / TestãBY: Beta to TommyKnocker on Fri Dec 03 1999 10:01 pmãã > So Vert is the central hub again then?ããThis argument arises now and again.ããThe nature of the QWK network means that there is no official central hub asãsuch. ANY SysOp that's willing can be the hub for ANY SysOp that's needy.ããThere is no need for anyone to poll any specific hub (formally designated theãcentral hub or otherwise). Everyone just needs to poll the most convenientãlocation FOR THEM.ããThat's what being a network means. Any point of connection is as good as anyãother.ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ telnet://talamasca-bbs.com http://www.talamasca-bbs.comã

ãGreat message except I don't believe that it is a mess. I have theãlatest and greatest Winserver sitting at home in a box, ran wc4.20ãfor 3 years. Finally went to Synchronet(I've actually talked to bothãAllen and Rob by phone). When 3.0 is ready will get ISDN and run it thatãway. TK I'm not chewing you out I just feel that Sync was the bestãBBS software ever programmed and when everyone finds out what Rob isãdoing we should see a great prolification of Sync boards on the net.ããT>RE: Admin? / Testã >BY: Beta to PistolGrip on Fri Dec 03 1999 08:48 pmããT> > We don't really have an Admin, but TK would be the head of the net basicalããT> While I have tried to do the best I could for Dove Net, I nor anyoneã >else was really the head of the net for the last couple of years.
