    How does everyone handle nodelist updates?

    Do they point the mutil.ini to the filebase directory?

    .... Running Windows is better than washing them!

    Yes, that's what I do:

    Perfect! Thank you for getting back.

    Yes, that's what I do:

    [-- begin nodelist.ini --]
    [General]
    MergeNodeLists = true
    logfile = mutil.log
    logcache = true
    loglevel = 2
    logtype = 1
    maxlogfiles = 3
    maxlogsize = 1000

    [MergeNodeLists]
    strip_down = true
    strip_private = true

    nodefile=/home/pi/mystic/files/fdn_FSX_NODE/FSXNET
    nodefile=/home/pi/mystic/files/fdn_NODELIST/NODELIST
    nodefile=/home/pi/mystic/files/fdn_MIN_LIST/MICRONET
    [-- end nodelist.ini --]

    With new nodelists becoming available on a daily basis, why bother about the update?

    Hello Ward,

    I think he is referring to updating it on his BBS (there is a built-in nodelist
    browser), where either a command needs to be ran or an event executed in order to plug the latest nodelist in, once received, so it updates the information viewable to the user.

    Regards,
    Nick

    .... Take my advice, I don't use it anyway.
