• Merging Nodelists

    From CloudDancer@21:3/226 to All on Mon Jan 26 21:02:15 2026
    Howdy,

    I am running mutil's [MergeNodeLists] function....

    This is it's stanza:

    ; Strip nodes marked as DOWN?
    strip_down = true

    ; Strip nodes marked as PRIVATE?
    strip_private = true

    ; fsxNet
    nodefile=files/fsx/fsx_node

    ; fidonet
    nodefile=files/fdn/NODELIST

    When it runs, this is in the log:
    + Jan 26 20:54:44 Merging NODELIST
    + Jan 26 20:54:44 Searching "files/fdn/* for archive "NODELIST"
    + Jan 26 20:54:44 Searching "files/fdn/* for nodelist "NODELIST"
    + Jan 26 20:54:44 Searching "/home/mystic/bbs/temputil/* for nodelist "NODELIST"
    + Jan 26 20:54:44 Results: Merged 2 of 2 nodelist(s) in 0.00s

    Alas, data/nodelist.txt file contains only data from fsxNet nodelist?

    What am I doing wrong?

    - files/fsx/fsx_node/ contains FSXNET.Z23 from fsxnet
    - files/fdn/NODELIST/ contains nodelist.z23 from fidonet

    Should work. Log says two files merged, alas, not the fact.

    Thanks!

    Answered this one on my own:

    ; fsxNet
    nodefile=files/fsx/fsx_node/FSXNET

    ; fidonet
    nodefile=files/fdn/NODELIST/nodelist

    Key is that last part is not the folder, but the NAME of the file without the extension that node list is in for the said network.

    Then when ran, this gets found, extracted, imported and voila! ;)
