On Thu, 17 Aug 1995 Jae Walker <[log in to unmask]> asked: >. . .If I pull down the logs and edit out the extraneous stuff. . .will >it work to PUT the revised log back to the same name? Then Bill Gruber <BIGCU@CUNYVM> replied: >Yes Probing this just a little deeper, is it necessary to instruct LISTSERV to delete <listname> DBNAMES and <listname> DBINDEX so as to force a new index to be built the next time someone does a database search, or will LISTSERV automatically detect that that the index is stale and take care of it? I have always done the delete, but Gruber implies that it's not necessary. /b
