file area settings are set to delete files that are 30 days or older. After
using the "addfiles" command to import the files we issued a "delfiles
linuxdir /rpt" and noticed that every file we just imported with addfiles
reported that it was uploaded 49710 days ago.
I'm just curious is this is because the files are being stored on a linux
machine and perhaps the file date is reported differently than it would be
on a Windows PC. If thats the case then I can setup a monthly event to
delete files every 30 days.

Not sure if I missed this in the documentation somewhere, or even if this is
possible to do.
My version of Synchronet is running on my file server at home. So typically
there will be file areas that are divided into categories like Utilities,
Games, etc.
But to keep the files seperated and knowing what each filename is, I have that
information further 'broke down' into sub directories. For example:
d:\shared\files\utilities\zone alarm
Inside that directory would be all the Zone Alarm versions that I have
downloaded from the internet.
Would it be possible to add in a future version of Synchronet, the ability to
include files in their sub directories when uploading them to the BBS? So that
if we set the files to be uploaded from the BBS as; d:\shared\files\utilities
it would read all the sub directories and upload the files from them?!?
Or is this already available somehow?!?
Making an individual thread for each sub directory would be ... enormous in my
case. Which is the reason that I'm asking and proposing this.
Anyhow, as I learn more each day about Synchronet, I want to thank everyone for
their work in it. I'm thoroughly enjoying being a Sysop again! =)

Digital Man,
I finally managed to have all sorted.
I had a massive mess between the sub-boards + the areas.bbs file. The amount of
stuff was just massive and I was literally getting lost in translation there.
I just restore an old copy of the areas.bbs file + removed all the sub-boards.
Waited a bit and Now it's all back to Normality. Loading pointers as it should.
It has been an interesting experience to load 2000 + boards. It was just
bringing the Box to it's knees. 1 CPU/Core was all the way up to 100% and I had
setup 10 nodes!!! So I coudn't imagine having jsut 4 simultaneous users!!
I can see the limitation now, anywhow do you see a way of getting all those
many boards and still keeping the service just working all right?
Anyway of users login in without the whole Message Point Loding issue?
Just wondering if there is a way around or I am just asking for an impossible.
Many thanks for all guys.

I noticed that the doorgame lunatix runs very very slowly on the
synchronet fossil, but when using
netfoss it loads up right away.
i knew it had issues, i just thought it was a general issue with it
not being ran in its intended environment.
i stopped by gargoyle's landing and i saw his copy was running very
fast, and it was loading netfoss beforehand.
i gave it a try myself and its as fast as his.
is this indicative of a fossil issue with synchronet? it certainly
seems so.

Not currently. I plan on having the FTP directory names configurable in the
future.

giving me that option. Is there now a new way to delete the auto-message? I'm
using Synchronet 3.16 built on June 5, 2013.
I know I can delete sbbs\data\msgs\auto.msg on my BBS machine, but I'd like to
be able to delete the auto-message remotely if I wanted to.
