In the normal case of an owner trimming a lists archives (eg: deleteing all archives more than a year old), one can do a get/put sequence to alert Listserv to the need to rebuild the WWW ind files. In my case, I want to delete old archives from a group of about 240 lists and then wave a wand and have the server rebuild the ind files for all 240 lists. I tried restarting the server after deleting the ind files on a single test case and Listserv didn't detect the missing ind files, contrary to my probable misinterpretation of section 5.4.8. I seem to recall that the trigger I'm looking for is deleting the list.html files in the ind parent dir, but would like some reassurance before I actually whack 240 lists. Thanks. -Kary
