You only need to set it up once and you're done when you setup your network. This is my /sbbs/ctrl/tickit.ini entry for fsxnet. [FSX_NODE] Dir=FSXFILEFSX_NODE Handler=tickit/nodelist_handler.js HandlerArg={"domain":"fsxnet" ,"match":"FSXNET.Z*", "nlmatch":"FSXNET.*"} domain is the entry you made for the network in echocfg. match is the incoming filename, and nlmatch is the name of the nodelist within the compressed file. The file will be extracted to the location specified in echocfg, /sbbs/nodelist in my case. my sbbsecho.ini entry is as follows. Yours may be slightly different. [domain:fsxnet] Zones = 21 DNSSuffix = OutboundRoot = /sbbs/fido/out/fsxnet NodeList = /sbbs/nodelist/fsxnet.na I have a script that you can run that'll make a tickit.ini file for you from all your script and will add handlers for most of the popular networks.
