  • FREQ Directories

    From Sean Dennis@1:18/200 to All on Sun Apr 9 12:53:46 2006
    Hello, All.

    I can't believe I've forgotten this, but what is the filename and the format for the FREQ directory list for BT? I've got OKFILE.CFG for the magic names, but I've forgotten the other.

    Later,
    Sean

    Sean,

    This is the OKAY.FIL I had when I last ran Binkley in 1998:

    d:\fidomail\reqfiles\*.*
    AVAIL d:\fidomail\reqfiles\*.*
    TIMED f:\reqfiles\tim*.zip
    NODEDIFF d:\fidomail\reqfiles\NODEDIFF.ZIP
    NODELIST d:\fidomail\reqfiles\NODELIST.ZIP
    FILES d:\binkley\FILES.TXT

    Does that help?

    Take care,

    Hi Sean,

    Hello, All.

    I can't believe I've forgotten this, but what is the
    filename and the format for the FREQ directory list for
    BT? I've got OKFILE.CFG for the magic names, but I've
    forgotten the other.

    OKFILE.LST does both magic list and directories for me.

    Cheers...........pk.

    Hello, Peter.

    Replying to a message of Peter Knapper to Sean Dennis:

    I'm using OKFILE.CFG (just the default one). Here's what I have:

    @MININFO D:\MICRONET\MNINFO.ZIP
    @MICRONET D:\MICRONET\MICRONET.ZIP

    I can just start adding directories to that too, then?

    Mine's very simlar -

    D:\Bbs\Nodediff\*.*
    D:\Bbs\Nodelist\*.*
    E:\Files\Sysop\*.*
    D:\Files\Sysfiles\*.* !password
    @FILELIST D:\Files\Downloads\Nzmcfall.Zip
    @BINKLEY E:\Files\Sysop\B???_250.Zip
    @NODELIST D:\Bbs\Nodelist\Nodelist.Z??

    You can also place a required password after the directory/filename.

    Cheers............pk.
