SYSOPs,

I'm hoping to get some help from some fellow BBS SYSOPs out there.. now that I've resolved sending and receiving fsxNet messages from the fsxNet HUB.. The next item is on the list is fsxNet files. As far as I'm aware, I have configured two fsxNet file bases.. weekly info nodelists and infopacks.. But my system hasn't received any files from my fsxNet HUB as of yet.. So far its
only been echomail messages..

I've configured the two file bases, I'm wondering what else I'm possibly missing :-)

Thanks,
Eggy

You are not missing anything, content will flow when new files are hatched
into the fileecho. There is no rescan feature in filefix (as opposed to areafix).

Have you connected the areas with Filefix? Filefix does for file areas what areafix does for message areas.

Ttyl :-),

Thanks, I had a feeling filefix might work that way.

Yes, unlike Allfix where you can request a resend, Filefix does not seem to support this (at least I am now aware if it does).

Correct... but I will undertake to hatch some files out again to each base
soon so as to allow newer folks a chance to get some files :)

I've seen a new infopack has been hatched.. but I'm still not seeing anything on this side as of yet.. Am I missing something on my side?

Thanks,

Yup. You were missing the files... :)

It was a typo on my end. You are now set up.

I did manually create .TIC files, and sent them with the current files
hatched out. I hope I didn't miss anything in them, and the tossed properly...

Sorry about that...

No problem, it looks like they have arrived on my end now =)
