A few people have hit me with a clue bat: we probably should be using the comp.mail.maps database format for our uucp/Usenet sites, as then we can feed them through pathalias to get optimal routes. There are a bunch of 1988 map files here: http://utzoo.superglobalmegacorp.com/usenet/news080f1/b101/comp/mail/maps/ and the file format is detailed here: http://ftp.arnes.si/faq/comp/mail/maps/UUCP_map_for_README Question: do we want to keep as much historical information as possible, and just change the links to reflect our topology? Can we add new lines to append the information needed now, e.g. #N seismo, beno, hugo, maui, noress, perry #C Rick Adams #E seismo!postmaster #I simh.tuhs.org:5000; Warren Toomey Will pathalias ignore unrecognised lines? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
