All,

Any thoughts as to why mutil is not adding net address to imported
messagebases when I import with 'mutil importmsgna' despite the fact that the net address is correct in the ini and in Mystic config? Not a huge deal as I just globally add them but its not functioning properly and the voices in my head are laughing at me ;)

Thanks in advance!

Just a hunch, but your group g3 should be z3 for file bases assuming the
group number for the file base is the same ID as the message group ID,
remember "z" is for file groups and "g" is for message groups.

Are you running this after the bases had been created by other means? Or are you running it to create the bases from scratch?

Thanks, just a couple of things that *may* be nothing

logfile = mu.importmsgna.log

will it create a log file with periods in the syntax? I've never tried,
picking the answer is yes

filename = BACKBONE.NA

suggest rename the file and this line to fidonet.na (lower case) to see if
that helps

netaddress = 1:227/114

Is this defined using correct syntax in mystic echomail addresses? Do you have the domain defined correctly also?

acs_list = s10g3
acs_read = s10g3
acs_post = s20g3
acs_sysop = s255g3

Christian - this would be fine as it's setting up message bases not file
bases - but good thoughts :)

Running from scratch: mutil importmsgna.ini to import from BACKBONE.NA.

Works great ~except that it will not import the net address. Everything else comes in and works fine.

Sorry Avon, thats not likely the problem. The other two networks I imported using lowercase filenames (see below) also failed to set net address. However, I'm gonna try that anyway!

netaddress = 1:227/114

Importing of net addresses has not worked for ~any of the three networks I
have imported from .NA file (fsxnet, agoranet, and now fidonet). Mail flows fine, however. It is as correct as my understanding allows... As I
indicated, I have had to globally set the net address for each import I have done.

Here is my setup (removed and re-entrered twice):

-----

Zone 1
Net 227
Node 114
Point 0

Domain fidonet
Description FidoNet
Primary No

-----

As is indicated in the ini text, the network address must be defined in both the ini and mystic. Obviously, its not correct somewhere but I'll be darned
if I can find it.

Cheers!
