use the script in /spider/connect/<callsign> to effect the 'chat' exchange
necessary to traverse the network(s) to logon to the cluster <callsign>.
-=== 9^CATCH <node call> All|[<msgno> ...]^Mark a message as sent
-=== 9^UNCATCH <node call> All|[msgno> ...]^Unmark a message as sent
+=== 5^CATCHUP <node call> All|[<msgno> ...]^Mark a message as sent
+=== 5^UNCATCHUP <node call> All|[msgno> ...]^Unmark a message as sent
When you send messages the fact that you have forwarded it to another node
is remembered so that it isn't sent again. When you have a new partner
node and you add their callsign to your /spider/msg/forward.pl file, all
be ALL the non-private messages. You can prevent this by using these
commmands:-
- catch GB7DJK all
- catch GB7DJK 300 301 302 303
+ catchup GB7DJK all
+ catchup GB7DJK 300 301 302 303 500-510
and to undo what you have just done:-
- uncatch GB7DJK all
- uncatch GB7DJK 300 301 302 303
+ uncatchup GB7DJK all
+ uncatchup GB7DJK 300 301 302 303 500-510
which will arrange for them to be forward candidates again.
+Order is not important.
