Hello Rick,

I noticed on my new setup (working almost perfectly) that binkd
starts to execute my toss command but I get the rc code

05 Jan 06:42:59 [46710] Running nice -n 19 /usr/local/bin/hpt
toss afix 05 Jan 06:42:59 [46710] executing `nice -n 19
/usr/local/bin/hpt toss afix' 05 Jan 06:42:59 [46710] rc=17664

17664=0x4500

The exit code returned by hpt is the higher byte, that is 0x45.
Something was wrong. Could you please set the log levels in your hpt config: LogLevels 1-90A-Za-z and specify the path to your hpt config
on the command line: /usr/local/bin/hpt -c /path/to/config toss afix

So rebuilding fixed that mail not tossing from last week on my bbs. I have just in last couple of days setup another instance of hpt and it is producing the exact behavior, not tossing pkt's, same error code reported in binkd.log

22 Jan 06:33:21 [2018] Running /usr/local/bin/mail-toss.sh
- 22 Jan 06:33:21 [2018] executing `/usr/local/bin/mail-toss.sh'
- 22 Jan 06:33:21 [2018] rc=17664

Should I rebuild again.? This is an exact copy of configs and scripts, both instances have same paths, etc.

I did as you suggested, I still have to run the script manually.
I will send you a netmail with the hpt.log attached.

Everything looks good in the log I've received from you. So, when you
run the script manually, it works. And what happens if you put the following line to your binkd config: exec "/usr/local/bin/hpt -c /path/to/hpt/config toss afix" /mystic/echomail/in/*.[STFWMstfwm][ouaherOUAHER][0-9A-Za-z]

got it working by adding config path to the script.. I have an "export FIDOCONFIG=/etc/ftn/config" in .bashrc is that not sufficient?

It should be sufficient. It looks like the environment is stripped. You may check it by printing the FIDOCONFIG variable before calling hpt:

echo "$FIDOCONFIG" > test.txt; /usr/local/bin/hpt toss afix

Put that in a script and mention its name in your binkd config

exec your_script /mystic/echomail/in/*.[STFWMstfwm][ouaherOUAHER][0-9A-Za-z]

If there is nothing in test.txt, then the value of FIDOCONFIG is lost and you must specify the config path.

No. From `man bash`:

"When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is started, bash reads and executes commands from /etc/bash.bashrc then ~/.bashrc when those files exist and are readable. This may be inhibited by using the --norc option. The --rcfile file option will force bash to read and execute commands from file instead of ~/.bashrc.
