After I received this enourmous pressure by EARN (they were right), I got rid of LISTEARN. Of course I created problems. If I want to GET a file of an existing Filelist, LISTSERV says: 'file X Y is not yet available'. The FILEID, the FILELIST file and the '000000nn filelist' file is also there. What am I missing? best regards Hermann Schneider ____/ ____/ __ / ____/ CS Computer Networks coordinator / / / / / Robert Bosch Strasse 5 /___/ ___ / / / / D 64276 Darmstadt / / / / / ____/ ____/ _____/ ____/ Phone: (49) 6151.90.2464 European Space Operations Centre Fax: .3061
