TinyTIC looks like a great simple solution!  Maybe down the road I will find reason to forward or hatch files but for just handling received TIC files, TinyTIC should fit my needs.

Is there much file distribution besides nodelists and network infopacks and astronomy pictures of the day?  That seems to be mostly what I've seen around.


Thanks!
