Your information is out-of-date: AGWPE works fine on XP, W7, and W8.1.  I don’t have Vista so I can’t comment on that version.  I use AGWPE in single user mode primarily with Outpost.  No problems.


The website states that it works for all of these as well.

Hi Maiko,



Thanks again for your support! Didn't you always know I was gonna try something nobody else has tried :)




The actual AGWPE does not run on anything newer than W2K. However there are a few other packages such as DIREWOLF and UZ7HO that emulate AGWPE thus allowing one to use client apps etc. Ultimately my modem of choice would be DIREWOLF on a Pi as it's a command line/curses tool that I can run in a "screen" session.




I guess that most folks would not be running AGWPE for no other reason that they would have hardware modems. My idea is to allow sysops to deploy modems at Aunt Bertha's house without having to put an entire BBS there just so as to fill in a dead spot behind that hill near her house.




Actually, it doesn't have to be an AGWPE interface that I connect to. Simply a remote modem would do. The Hansen TNCX-Pi is also OK. What I really want to do is connect to a modem remotely. I've tried a few tricks such as "socat" and "remserial" and whilst they work in UI mode they do not work in KISS mode. I'm wondering if the control characters are upsetting something? Hence my email to you and N2NOV the other day.




 Thanks!




Mark

Hi Mark,

Honestly, hardly a sole has tried this besides yourself. I have not
even tried to use the AGWPE since I put in the basic support for it,
getting the impression not many people use AGWPE anymore, perhaps I
am wrong in that.

If you really want this working, I can try and install the AGWPE onto
my system here at home in the next few days and see what's going on.

Cheers,

Maiko



Has anyone tried using Maiko's AGWPE compatibility in JNOS?
