Yes, you are. :) For me the list of commands (that you liked) in this echo did match to the sequence explanation of the huskybse INSTALL file.

Please compare the list of commands in this thread to the examples of the INSTALL file. I can't see much difference. The sudo command is missing there.

This would result in high administration workload in the *C structure and some weeks later into dead node listings or nodelist clearings. Fast install and fast forgotten.

The user have to add the repo url into the apt settings. WV> just for maybe a few hundred (at best) users... Cancel "few". 21 hpt "star" markers, 10 network members. I don't know if there is way to see a husky download counter. KR>> Maybe i'm too much used to husky but i don't see htick as a KR>> standalone programm. WV> It is for me. What about the dual configuration in your non-husky installation and the fidoconfig required for htick? How do you keep them in sync? KR>> It's a part of a toolset and the base tool is huskybase.

That is the inital primer, read first. Regards Kai --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.4.7 * Origin: Monobox (2:240/77) .
