do you always meet the criteria listed here?

perhaps you sometimes work on your system exactly when vert checks your status?

Hi DM,

Is the SBBSIMSG.LST file supposed to include all systems that meet the requirements?

It's re-generated nightly and is based on the port scanning done by the sbbslist.js script.

My list only contains 81 lines at any given time.

That's a lot! Most BBSes fail to have all the required ports open or forwarded.

Sometimes I'm in there,
other times not. Other sysops (StingRay at A-Net for one) are seeing the same thing.

Here's the last autoverify results for your BBS:

"success": true,
"last_success": {
"on": "2026-02-13T08:23:50.370Z",
"result": "Synchronet BBS for Win32 Version 3.21",
"stopcause": "Disconnected",
"service": {
"protocol": "telnet",
"address": "conchaos.synchro.net",
"port": 23
},
"ip_address": "173.88.200.16",
"other_services": {
"tcp": [
"smtp"
],
"udp": []
}
}

It's missing the SYSTAT/ActiveUser service response on UDP port 11.

I'll look into maybe adding a retry or something to make this more reliable.

Today's file contains 82 listings, so seems that might have done the
trick!
