BPQ Web Management Tool
This page talks about completing a basic BPQ installation for amateur radio packet messaging and chat, as well as how to use the tool for managing the BPQ system. On Windows (BPQ32) this can be done with the Windows applications, but on Linux the web tool must be used. This includes configurations for modules (e.g., BBS and CHAT), since the configuration file options are not documented.
To access the web configuration tool you'll need the IP address or hostname and port (HTTPPORT, which can be found in bpq32.cfg) to enter into a browser. For example, I use another system, open a browser, and go to http://packet.local:8008 .
