• Tickit UPDATE

    From Terry@1:103/705 to All on Mon Dec 18 16:07:55 2017
    Hi

    Ok well tickit as a tosser and sending out to my links seems to be working
    but now i just went to have a down link test out doing an areafix to turn on
    a filearea and they got this back,

    infopack not found.

    so i went to the tickit.ini to search for that area to see if it was even in there and it was

    [INFOPACK]
    Path=/sbbs/files/fidonet/INFOPACK
    Links=1:128/187,1:317/3,1:305/1,3:770/330

    so the area is in there but areafix did not see if so how do i go about
    getting areafix to work now thanks

    Sincerly
    Terry

    Tickit is a file processor, right? I believe "areafix" is used for messages only. You may want to look into "filefix" instead.

    Hi
    Well in the first 3 lines of the wiki at
    http://wiki.synchro.net/util:tickit
    its says
    In a recent change to SBBSecho/EchoCfg v3 and tickit.js, the TIC file
    password for each FTN-linked node is now stored in the TicFilePwd key of
    the corresponding [node] section of the sbbsecho.ini file and can be
    managed via AreaFix and via echocfg.

    so thats what i was going by?

    Sincerly
    Terry

    That just means you can change the TicFilePwd value for a linked node by using AreaFix NetMail commands. That's all.
