   shouldn't it be up to each system to determine what is a duplicate file and   
   what is not? why should the contents of my files areas influence what files   
   you have? that's what you appear to be saying should be done... so if i create   
   a file named mbse42.zip and a new official version 4.2 is hatched with the   
   same name, those downstream from me won't get it even though they never had it   
   and it only existed on my system until the new release was hatched... plus i   
   might be greatly upset if my mbse42.zip were overwritten causing the loss of   
   the information stored in it...

   Do you manage your own servers? If you are not running an IDS/IPS yer doin' it   
   wrong...   
   ... We have nothing to be proud of but everything to be thankful for.
