I've had the honor of having one of the new JavAPRSSrvrs connecting up here. Couple observations and maybe something that needs to be reacted to: JavAPRSSrvr has an inactivity timer - default setting is 20 seconds and is user definable. JavAPRSSrvr will drop a connection if there's no traffic flowing and re-establish it later on as needed. However, each of these connect/disconnects generates a USERLIST message that's sent out to the APRS-IS. With a low volume server and a 20 second 'time out', the sheer volume of these messages is pretty impressive. I've got 'broadcastJavaInfo off' in aprsd.conf - but these are still getting out. (does that even apply? does it still work?) Is there a way to kill these messages altogether? Does it exist and isn't working or is something broken? Does this need to be added in? Time to kill the USERLIST messages, I say. Examples available: http://12.227.198.57/aprsd.log <- aprsdCSP's May 18 to current http://12.227.198.57/20020519.txt (or .zip - both there) <-log file a client connected up to another server (port 1314), connected to aprsdCSP via port 1313 recorded. (SANAE - port 1314 -> 'other server' - port 1313 -> aprsdCSP) 73 -- Casper, WY | CARC Repeater DN62tt | 146.940 "The Dungeon" online at http://go.to/kc7zru "RTFM" is NOT a 'four letter' word! |
