Harry has had a problem running GENROUTS for LSVGNODE and I think the solu-
tion is of common interest. When you have ran GENROUTS, entered the fileid of
the BITEARN NODES file and waited for a couple minutes, you must reply "1", not
"3". Actually what you generate is a routing table for your node, which LSVGNO-
DE will then use (actually it only uses the comments in the ROUTE statements).
Option 3 generates an information file with name and address of all nodes.
I have implemented a better inter-server command sending facility which I
will need in further releases (better control over what you do, and ability to
send several commands in a single jobfile). I will start using it on my LIST-
SERV, and those among you who have a peer list linked to FRECP11 might get some
garbage files transferred to you -- odd-looking files which might lead to the
erroneous conclusion that some kind of evil Wizard (or Witch ;-) ) has tried to
mislead me into the dark alleys of J*S3. They will not be caused by my commands
but from other users who send a REV/STAT command to my server and have it for-
warded.
I will need someone to beta-test V1.4 before I release it to the world (pro-
bably on sunday). Will any of you be up and un-busy tomorrow or sunday, in an
area of the net where the links are up during weekends? ;-) If so, please let
me know.
Eric
