Hi Bob,  :)


Thank you for your speedy acknowledgement of my post.  


 BJ> I know I haven't tested whtat Joe is trying to do....  In fact I'm 
 BJ> the opposite, I have as much of the file forwarding disabled as I can 

I did too, until the time came that I realized that using it would benefit a 
couple other sysops.

Note:  Squish docs very clearly show how to limit and control the forwarding of 
files.  Having the capability to configure and control the feature is equally 
important to having it actually work at all.


 BJ> perform.  We need to put Joe's comment in the queue for review after 
 BJ> we finally have a stable version of Maximus/Squish running under 
 BJ> Linux......

<embarrassed>   I've only been skimming across the echos of late.  I'm very 
happy to see the traffic in them!  and to know that Max/Squish are not dead.

But some of the details of what all you folks are doing get by me.
Do I recall correctly that there will not be a new Dos version of Max and 
Squish?
And that eventually, there are plans to have a new OS/2 ver of Max and Squish?

....obviously, I'm a bit fuzzy here.  sorry...



 BJ> Also, I'll forward a copy of this to you in the MUFFIN echo, since 
 BJ> I'm not sure you are carrying the TUB echo.

I hope he is.  :)


Note:  I am not absolutely declaring it to be a bug.   But I've spend enough 
time on it, that it may be.     I'd like nothing better than somebody to come 
along and say, " hey .... maybe you configed it wrong.. do it like this 
...blah,blah... as that is how it works fine for me ".

Should you or any of the other gurus with me to do any more experiments with my 
current software,  just let me know.    :)


Thanks      


                                                .....Joe
