|    Nodelist Parser...    |
|    27 Jun 18 17:16:37    |
      Okay, a more serious nodelist question...               What is a nodelist parser supposed to do with a line that has two INA       addresses? Right now, I am taking the second, mainly because one line just has       INA:9600, which totally tripped up my address validation code. [fixed].               There are a couple lines that have for example ITN:domain.address, no IBN, no       INA, and phone is -Unpublished-, however, it is not marked as Pvt or Down.       What rule of thumb should be applied?               I have Rhenium polling every node right now in the background - just so I can       validate my nodelist parser. Finding a lot of systems that are IP based are       not available - I know someone is going to defend this with ZMH... however, I       haven't gotten to implement XM,CM,etc. logic. Rhenium is doing this so I can       collect VER information (what systems are running what, along with collecting       M_ADR list for what networks others are in around the world).               * This is running in single thread poll - so I would not mess up anyone,       including my ISP if I spawned off a few thousand threads.        Regards,       Ozz               --- dBridge & Rhenium        * Origin: RVA Fido Support - ExchangeBBS.com, ModernPascal.com (1:275/362)    |
