  • D'Bridge Stuff

    From Mickey@1:229/307 to All on Wed Nov 12 18:55:58 2025

    Cosidering my last message (keeping things in topic), I have just installed Renegade and seemingly had to also install D'Bridge.Binkp in it does answer
    the calls (sometimes) but spews modem stuff and hangs up.

    Two questions, can I prevent that? and how do I set-up binkd with uplink info with password etc. I'm sure it's there, but I haven't found it.

    (not another stupid D'Bridge user)

    I'm not sure what you mean by spewing modem stuff?

    D'Bridge comes with its own BinkD subsystem. The configuration is all done from D'B itself.

    One day I will have to figure it out myself. I'm still using my DB-hack from just around 1776 ...

    It advises that it can't communicate with modem, buy it is answering calls.
    It attempts to poll it's uplink but has security issues and I haven't figured out how to set passwords yet so it's expected. Maybe binkd settings?

    Your hack is what I based parts of it on...

    I am honoured...

    Eventually I will shift to the version that comes with the packet, others seem to be OK with it so I guess it works..
