    Exclusively. If it's from a Synchronet system, that is what I use wcQWKnet for.

    Is that a utility you made?? I use to use wcqwk and it worked okay... never IJ>had a problem with it. I have forgot how I made it run. I need to figure IJ>out how to get a cfg file to poll vert.

    Yes, it is something I wrote. And still maintain, actually.

    Yeah, with my wcQWKnet WCX, it does that all automatically. The only time it leaves WINServer is to run WCQWK.EXE.

    Datalus>Yes I'm talking about WinSserver did it with batch files no script. Datalus>and I will fix the name thing when I'm done sorry, Datalus>Sam Penwright.

    Yeah, I got tired of having multiple batch files, so that is why I wrote wcQWKnet for. It uses WINServer's internal FTP client to actually transfer QWK
    and REP packets.

    Datalus>hey Robert, Are you using PX as front end or are you doing something Datalus>similar to me I run irex and PX people say it will eliminate like Irex?
    Datalus>As for Winsnet and xpressnet that will be fine as long as I dont need Datalus>to poll them right away It seems when my system upgraded to 7 and new Datalus>PX alot of my stuff was missing and I havent found my backup yet to see

    PX does not do BINKP transfers, so to connect to systems that are BINKP only, no, you will still need to run Internet Rex or binkp along side PX. I mainly use Internet Rex to transfer mail and use PXMAIL and PXTICS to handle the processing of echomail and TIC files respectively.
