Hello Nick,

To your question about the number of partners needed, with the 5 that I see
you currently have, it is more than enough. It's not a question of host
power, it's a question of redundancy, and you currently have that.


I advise you to include the following in your configuration:

/spider/scripts/startup

set/var $main::localhost_alias_ipv4 = "<your_public_ip>"
set/var @main::localhost_names qw(127.0.0.1 ::1 <local_ip1> <local_ip2>)

set/var $DXProt::pc92c_ipaddr_enable 1

set/spider xxxx1   # DXSpider
set/spider xxxx2   # CC Cluster
set/arc xxxx3      # ARC Cluster
set/rbn SK0MMR     # RBN
set/rbn SK1MMR     # RBN

#If you have an ARC Cluster partner
set/pinginterval 0 <arc_node>

You could register on Jim AD1C's website:

Asunto: RBN spots and how many connections?


Hello,

I've been testing a new DXSpider dxcluster node (NA4DA-2) and am looking for
additional nodes to connect to.  Especially, one with RBN spots.  To receive
RBN spots do I just connect to a node that has them and set/skimmer?  Or is
there another way - say directly from the RBN?

We'll be deploying the node on at our club site on a fiber connection this
week.  I'm also curious if it is beneficial to connect to many nodes?  I
understand there may be diminishing returns but we will have plenty of
processor and bandwidth available.

Thanks,
Nick
