A48 seems to be working fine here, except that I still cannot get the Download via WEB (dlreq) functionality to work -- I always get "File not in queue" when clicking on a file to download it:

It appears that it does not even try to open the actual file to be downloaded.

The MIS log shows:

Any ideas what could be causing this? Maybe something with the newlines in the .dlreq file, or missing <argument> in <argument>=<value> in the URL (only the filename is listed), or trying to match the entire path instead of only the filename, or some anti-spoofing kicking in? Just wild guesses, of course...

My slightly revised webroot files are available here:
https://scbbs.nsupdate.info/files/webroot.tar.gz

They fix a couple of validation errors, HREF link quoting, and add some anti-caching and CSS styling. Free to use as you wish, should you wish. :)

Best regards
