[aprssig] aprsd passcode problems - unverified

[Stan - N0YXV]

aprspass if I recall correctly is just a program to help you generate the
right password. The real APRS servers use the passwords that are generated
under "aprspass" so that you can log onto both your server and the APRS-IS
servers. Don't forget that your aprs password is not the same thing as your
user password you use to log on. One you've generated and aprs password you
can then stick that data into your aprs program and it should then say
verified.

  Hi All,

    Does anyone know how to circumvent the aprspass algorythym in aprsd?  I
can't seem to get my systems to talk bi-directional because of passcode
problems.  I have the correct passcode set on the server.  Any ideas?  When
I look thru the code, I see things about local accounts on the system.  How
do the real APRS servers work(I don't have local accounts there)?  Ethereal
shows that the program is sending the right passcode along so it's not a
translation issue over the network connection.  It says that I'm unverified.

  The version of software is 2.2.5-15
