    Hi all,

    With echicken's BBS back online, apparently the remote/ibbs services are there, but in testing syncwall from here, it appears to be a blank slate on each launch.

    Is it working normally for others? (and is this possibly a side-effect of running the server locally and then changing it to connect to bbs.electronicchicken.com?)

    I just tried it and it worked for me. Saw the initialization message plus a handful of messages from other boards.

    OK, thanks for that - to confirm, was that the syncwall or the oneliners? I'll probably have a look at both here shortly.

    It was the Oneliners, actually. I keep forgetting the syncwall exists. :P

    Appears like oneliners is working from here... though when I post a oneliner, it shows it 3 times initally when I hit Enter. When I exit and go back to the oneliners, it shows only once.

    Is this a known quirk?
