Frequently Asked Questions

Why does some of my SMTP mail stay in the mail queue and not get delivered with TNOS?

TNOS Installation
This is probably due the the fact you have the smtp hopper code compiled into your TNOS. The smtp hopper defaults to ON, at least in 1.14 TNOS. If the site you are mailing is down stream of a TheNet X1J type node/router, (or indeed any other router that does not handle SMTP connects) and you have a IP route set via one of these nodes, then the smtp hopper code will be trying to deliver your mail to this node!

Why does my TNOS keep crashing?

TNOS Installation
It has been noted that starting your servers right at the end of your autoexec.nos file i.e. your 'start' lines, can lead to a more stable system. You should also make sure you are running a fairly recent version of TNOS. At the time of writing this I am running 2.0pl2 for Linux, and it seems to be proving very stable. If you must run an earlier version than 2.0 for Linux, then make sure you do not have the status line turned on, also the tcpgate facility is buggy in earlier versions.

What is TNOS?

TNOS Installation
TNOS is a multi-threaded application that contains a complete implementation of industry standard TCP/IP with drivers, applications, and support for use in an RF environment, primarily the Amateur Packet Radio environment. There are two versions, one that runs under MS-DOS/PC-DOS/DR-DOS and any multi-taskers that support virtual DOS boxes, and the other which runs as an application under Linux and other unix systems.

Web site hosting reviews. FAQ.
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol is used for transferring mail between internet hosts. It is often used to upload mail directly from the client to an intermediate host. Can only be used on systems that maintain a constant connection to the internet.

Where can I obtain TNOS from?

TNOS Installation
The latest release of TNOS can always be ftp'd from Brian Lantz's (TNOS author) machine, ftp://ftp.lantz.com/tnos/current. It can also be found at ftp.ucsd.edu in the /hamradio/packet/tcpip/incoming directory a few days after a new version is released. There is also a mirror site of ftp.lantz.com which you will probably get better performance from, Brians net link is 28.8k PPP, this is a T1 link. FTP to ftp.mwmicro.com and look in mirrors/tnos. You will also find all the other goodies from ftp.

How do I go about installing TNOS?

TNOS Installation
Modify the 'autoexec.nos' file for your needs, or convert one from TNOS/Dos or another variant of xNOS Before connecting TNOS/Linux to a TNC: You should look in the /etc/rc.d directory and see if you have an rc.serial file. If you do, examine it, as it MAY need to have some changes made to it before the serial ports will be ready for use.

Why does it deliver the mail interactively when I'm trying to get it to go into queue only mode?

General Sendmail Issues - FAQ - sendmail.org
Or, I'm trying to use the "don't deliver to expensive mailer" flag, and it delivers the mail interactively anyway. I can see it does it: here's the output of "sendmail -v foo@somehost" (or Mail -v or equivalent). The -v flag to sendmail (which is implied by the -v flag to Mail and other programs in that family) tells sendmail to watch the transaction. Since you have explicitly asked to see what's going on, it assumes that you do not want to to auto-queue, and turns that feature off.

Do you have SMTP mail servers?

Hilltop Hosting - frequently asked questions
Yes. However, you may prefer to use your local ISP as your outgoing SMTP mail server. As a security precaution, you must check your Hilltop Email account within 10 minutes of attempting to send any outgoing mail through our servers. This is common practice to prevent the use of our servers for SPAM (unsolicited Email). When spammers are able to hijack the use of a server, it negatively affects their performance, which could affect your website uptime and Email service. Email Forms
