• /qwknet option on OS menu action

    From Jeff Brissette@21:2/109 to All on Thu Dec 7 15:30:26 2017
    I have no idea why I was thinking about the one issues I had a while
    back with trying to use my BBS as a QWKNET Hub, but I was.

    That issue was on a user that only has access to the qwknetwork menu
    after login the option to select packaged message bases did nothing.
    A setup on a 1.11 system worked, but the same basic setup on a 1.12 A36 didn't. (Both systems were Linux, if that makes any difference)

    So for some reason I decided to look at the menu option. the data
    section had /allgroups /qwknet. If I take the /qwknet out, it displays
    the entire message groups, which means at least the command is working
    at some level. But with the /qwknet option, it does nothing.

    This raises a few questions, is the an error log or something I can look
    at to give more information? Besides /allgroups and /qwknet are there
    any other command options for OS?

    I should say this is not a high priority, it was just something that
    came to me to look at last night.

    You are right it was broken at some point in the alphas here and I just fixed it. Thank you for the report.

    For that particular menu command I think /allgroups and /qwknet are the only two options. I have been trying to go through and document the menu commands on the Wiki, some of the existing documentation is accurate but some of it is not.
