  • File Areas

    From Mike Dippel@454:1/393 to All on Thursday, March 12, 2026 08:39:28
    I just realized that I don't have any file areas defined for iLink. I looked through the zip file and couldn't find a list of areas that I should carry.
    Is the nodelist updated weekly. If so, what is the name of that area so I can add it? Are there any others I can add?

    There are no files areas for ILink. The node list gets updated as it
    is changed. I think I have my system setup for FREQ for the file name
    and have a batch file send to systems that want to receive it when
    updated. I will have to check when I get home to see how I have it set
    up.

    I would carry that file area if one gets set up.

    Is not a file area. Its just the nodelist that get sent out to systems
    that requested to receive it. I have added your node number to the list
    of systems. I will manually run the event so the newest node list will
    be sent to the systems on the list.

    Here are the nodes that are on the list:
    454:2/1
    454/1/393
    454:1/5016
    454:3/105
