That's correct. It's pi1ehv. Unfortunately it is not that simple.
We physicaly moved the BBS pi8zaa to the same location as the node
pi1ehv. Both machines are connected via an ethernet axip link.
pi1ehv already had an axip link to pi5ehv. Netchl can only have one
route for the broadcasts to NODES, and it is pointing to pi5ehv. For
this reason pi1ehv directs it's broadcasts on the other axip port to
pi8zaa.
Like Tomi mentioned it we need to change it in the kernel source. I was
already afraid of that.
Unfortunately I don't understand C. I'm just a user... I read the README
and INSTALL files which is usually enough to get things compiled and
working :-)
I guess I could try and see what happens if I do a "find and replace"
(find NODES and replace with PI8ZAA). But I doubt that it wil work. I
will probably replace to much.
If some could tell me what to change, or even better send a patch, I
would really appreciate it.
