Hello all,

I can't seem to upload a SSH key. No matter what I do it says it is not a valid key. It also displays "Info: key file sanitized." I am using puttygen with the default options to create the keys. Are there certain setting I should be using to create the keys? I am using the most current version of the firmware on a UBNT Bullet M2 and AirGrid M2. If you need any other info let me know.

Thanks,

I have a mesh net tunneled to a friends mesh and we are playing with different applications.  I have a FTP server setup and can only access it from the other end of the tunnel if it is connected directly to the tunnel server with a port forwarding for 21 to the FTP server.

I wanted to have the FTP server on a separate node but it appears that the FTP request is not propagated to the mesh, through the tunnel, so the node with the server on it can answer.  There is no way I see to forward from the tunnel server to another node.

Am I missing something?

Yes, a single node with the HamChat package installed and published is the best thing to do.  

We have it installed in a node on a hilltop which serves as sort of a "backbone" link between areas.  It then is directly available to all other stations that can see that node as well as any that might surf to it through any other connected node.  

One of the good things about it is that no special client is required, just your browser.

As for my previous question about the CSS file.  All of a sudden about a week later it began using the changes that had been made to the file and the Timestamp font and color just changed.

So, if I understand correctly, this creates a chat room on each node that it's installed on, correct?
That is correct. Each node becomes its own "chat room." Only one person needs it installed and then you just direct everyone to a specific room.

You could also setup a single IRC server with multiple channels, but that is beyond the scope of this thread.

Hi Wil.

Our mesh is currently not connected to the web. We have no plans to do so, we are using it as a stand alone system and we are still trialling our network. Our next test will be on a Fell Race and we hope to be able to get a direct 2 mile link between 2 Linksys units with beam antennae.

I realize that the XW platform code is being worked on, but I am now stuck with two Nanostation M5 radios that I cannot use for BBHN.

OpenWRT now has support for the XW platform version, so presumably the development work is done, and this is a packaging job? How soon are we likely to see a beta of a version supporting XW?

Thanks for any input - I don't really want to go down the road of installing OpenWRT plus all the other support needed for BBHM.
