  • nonodes.txt not working

    From xbit@1:103/705 to All on Fri Jun 5 12:15:25 2026
    My \text\nonodes.txt is not displayed when my nodes are down. it just quickly disconnects the caller.

    This is on the windows side, linux works fine. tested on win 3.22a (test lab), win 3.21f and linux 3.21f.

    What protocol are you connecting with? nonodes.txt won't display over SSH, as I recall.

    This is on the windows side, linux works fine. tested on win 3.22a (test lab), win 3.21f and linux 3.21f.

    Another test would be to remove the text/nonodes.txt file and see what gets displayed on the remote. Also, if you enable debug-level log output, the server should log something like "Printing file: text/nonodes.txt" (when the file *does* exist).
