  • Qwk Call Out After Message post

    Hi,
    Is there a way to force a qwk call out event to a qwk hub when a message is posted to one of the areas that are a member of this group?
    I'd like to see if there's a way to have messages sent out after they are posted to an area just as they are when an area is a member of an FTN.

    Thanks,
    Tom

    Yes, set the Advanced->Semaphore File for each of the sub-boards in this group to "%jqnet/vert.now" (replace "vert" with whatever your QWK hub's QWK-ID is, if it's not VERT).
