Ok its been a while and I am getting a broken link trying to send a message from a message base. Has anyone seen this? Pkzip is there and does launchEven though I ran it from sbbs\exec and pkzip was there it must be calling it from somewhere else. Soon as I added a path to sbbs\exec it packs it. Go figure lol

If 'pkzip.exe' isn't in your search path, then that's not going to work. See
a *very* long time now.

Hi Jon Justvig
I Ian Segers of 1st choice core nz was once with whispernet
and just like to ask if you got my message per cancelling
myfeed with you I have areafix and filefix to remove echo etc
unsure if it worked, but thank you for letting use whispernet
while I was there just to quite here per traffic from my bbs.

Understandable. I disabled 1st Choice Core from WhisperNet. Thank
you for the time you've spent on the network. You're welcomed back
if you decide to change your mind. I'm in the process of getting it worked on again.
Hi Jon Justvig
Thank you for disabling 1st Choice Core from WhisperNet, I enjoyed the time while I was there, and if I change my mind, I get back to you.

You're welcome and you're certainly welcomed back at any time. What
was the main reason why you wanted the WhisperNet network disabled? If
I understand it right, it's because of the lack of activity.
I had
been undergoing some changes on my machine and not all the nets were enabled. I've double checked that all the nets that are hooked up to WhisperNet are getting a feed and that they are enabled. Also, I plan
on getting the echoes more active and that too. Anyway, keep me in the loop as far as what you decide to do.
Hi Jon Justvig
yes lack of activity, but not from your side of things, my side is was what I was tring to say, sorry for any mis understanding about that
part. like reading the messages but not good a posting so lack of activity.
I hope the changes on your machine go well.and your plan to the echoes more active
I might keep a eye on you bbs (QWK), to see how you going with your plan, might change my mind but I will keep you in the loop.
Thank you
part. like reading the messages but not good a posting so lack of activity.
Ah, so there weren't people on your BBS participating in WhisperNet. That's unforunate. I hope more people are more active on the network.
might change my mind but I will keep you in the loop.
I'm going to try to at least post 2-3 messages a day in the different echoes to see what happens. Hopefully, again, there will be more participation.
I whish you luck with that, and I hope you get more participation in hispernet.

I haven't participated much in WhisperNet in recent years because
in the past, it seemed to be taken down, put back up, and changed
hosts a lot. I seem to remember I used to get WhisperNet via
QWK, then I had to set it up via FTN, and then it changed hosts,
etc.. And often that seemed to happen without warning, so I
didn't even realize I had stopped receiving WhisperNet messages
until I activitly looked at the echos or checked my BBS logs,
etc..

I had similar experience with that network, which eventually
caused me to disconnect from it.

I've been on several message nets, and there have been just a
couple where the host BBS went offline and disappeared.
WhisperNet is the only one I've seen that keeps disappearing,
coming back, and switching hosts all the time..
