*Originally Posted In IFDC *Originally Posted by Janis Kracht Hi Gert, Even though you separated the hatch of these two files by several hours, it STILL caused problems with a number of my downlinks: 160118 04:00 BTICK: Processing file vpascal.zip in PASLINUX (21007kB). 160118 09:14 BTICK: Processing file vpascal.zip in PASWIN (21007kB). You cannot use the SAME filename for two different files. Not everyone gets crash delivery immediately upon a files arrival. Even if they did, it would STILL cause problems because these files are in a somewhat large range and take some time to go out to all downlinks: 21M Jan 18 04:00 /home/ftp/pub/pascal-net/paslinux/vpascal.zip 21M Jan 18 09:14 /home/ftp/pub/pascal-net/paswin/vpascal.zip I've have had some people ask me to disconnect them from all of your file echos because of this situation, and I understand the frustration they feel. In the future, please name the files in a manner that will indicate the version number and OS, for instance FP20WIN, FP20LNX, etc. Thanks, Janis --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Dada-2* Origin: Prism bbs (1:261/38) SEEN-BY: 14/5 18/200 19/33 34/999 90/1 116/18 120/331 123/500 128/187 140/1 SEEN-BY: 218/700 222/2 230/150 240/1120 249/303 250/1 261/38 100 266/404 SEEN-BY: 267/155 280/1027 282/1031 1056 292/907 908 320/119 219 340/400 393/68 SEEN-BY: 393/70 633/267 280 640/384 712/620 848 770/1 801/161 @PATH: 261/38 712/848 633/267 |
