  • Nodelist setting

    From RickV@VERT to Digital Man on Thu Aug 7 12:54:39 2025
    Hello Digital Man,

    ▬Selecting a node to configure will display a dialog like the following:

    Domain - fidonet
    Name fidonet
    Zones 1,2,3,4,5,6
    DNS Suffix binkp.net
    Outbound Root ../fido/outbound/
    NodeList


    How do you define a nodelist here? Do you use just the directory,or the directory and nodelist name with out an extension, or with an extension?

    c:\nodelist\ ?
    c:\nodelist\nodelist ?
    c:\nodelist\nodelist.199 ?

    Thanks,
    RickV

    Oh, so if you want to keep it updated, you would need to edit it every week.

    Thanks,

    If you're using TickIT, check out the nodelist handler JS script, which keeps the nodelists up to date for you (if you're receiving the nodelist files automatically):

    Great tip! I'll work on getting that running that way. Thanks.
