Subj : Points To : All From : Flavio Bessa Date : Thu Apr 09 2020 21:13:54 Hola, Volviendo al tema de puntos, desde la P4 de Fido: 1.2.1.2 Points A point is a FidoNet-compatible system that is not in the nodelist, but communicates with FidoNet through a node referred to as a bossnode. A point is generally regarded in the same manner as a user, for example, the bossnode is responsible for mail from the point. (See section 2.1.3.) Points are addressed by using the bossnode's nodelist address; for example, a point system with a bossnode of 114/15 might be known as 114/15.12. Mail destined for the point is sent to the bossnode, which then routes it to the point. In supporting points, the bossnode makes use of a private net number which should not be generally visible outside of the bossnode-point relationship. Unfortunately, should the point call another system directly (to do a file request, for example), the private network number will appear as the caller's address. In this way, points are different from users, since they operate FidoNet-compatible mailers which are capable of contacting systems other than the bossnode. --- --- ..-----________________--_ ________.--'-`--.____ Hugs from Flavio Bessa \____==================_) \_'===================' Syzo of Saturn's Orbit - -|__|-.______|=====/ `---' Netmail 4:801/189.1 Live long ` ù._ _ _ _~~~~~| fcbessa@gmail.com and prosper... `-.__________,' Always UnionNET Addicted! ....
