Was using winscp but now trying to figure out scp... the joys :)

It might be time to lie down now :) Heh.

name should remain FSXNET.ZXX or fsxnet.zxx ??

I'd vote for FSXNET.ZXX to keep it backwards-compatible (not sure if it affects anything on older systems with DOS software and the like).

But either name would be fine, as long as we get to know what you decide on. :-D

I'd vote for FSXNET.ZXX to keep it backwards-compatible (not sure if it affects anything on older systems with DOS software and the like).

It's more likely that it affects *nix systems or OSs with case-sensitive file systems. I would have to adjust my configuration and scripts (I wouldn't mind).

Changes at 21:1/100 (NET 1)

Please note there have been changes made to the systems running the NET 1
HUB (21:1/100). If you are having any issues with the HUB please email
me avon@bbs.nz to let me know and I'll do my best to help sort out any
issues :)

The HUB is now running BinkD (mailer), HPT (tosser/areafix) and Htick
(file manager / filefiix) and should now be available via port 24554
as well as 24556. In time I will look to shutter port 24556.

Nodelist hatching is mostly working now... still not sure if nodelist name should remain FSXNET.ZXX or fsxnet.zxx ??

Infopack updates have still to be worked out. I'm trying to suss how to automate file updates to my web server from the new Linux box.
Was using winscp but now trying to figure out scp... the joys :)

It might be time to lie down now :) Heh.

What would be the advantage in changing it to lowercase?

(Amiganet uses mixed case: AmyList.l??)

name should remain FSXNET.ZXX or fsxnet.zxx ??

I'd vote for FSXNET.ZXX to keep it backwards-compatible (not sure if it affects anything on older systems with DOS software and the like).

But either name would be fine, as long as we get to know what you decide on. :-D

It's more likely that it affects *nix systems or OSs with case-sensitive file systems. I would have to adjust my configuration and scripts (I wouldn't mind).

Woo! Another German board (even if mine isn't, I guess? I'm at
least typing this from Germany, for whatever that matters.), and Starbase 11 has a fancy fsxnet domain to boot.
