  • Qwk file questions

    From Rixter@1:103/705 to All on Thu Nov 21 20:48:59 2024
    I am setting up my bbs to be a qwk node for another bbs’s qwk feed. I can get zip packets to transfer to my bbs with no issues other than unknown conference, I am setting up the conference areas now. Some how one of my conferences got the wrong packet unzipped into it. What files do I need to delete to start fresh again on this conference?

    Delete the message area and re-install it in scfg, also to make sure the all the messages are deleted to not ever show up again, delete /sbbs/data/subs/INTERNALCODE.*

    Look in data/subs/* for the internal code of that conference (sub-board in SCFG->Message Areas). Delete <internal code>.* to erase a message base.

    I'd like to do that intentionally, for once. :)
