    Hi,
    I will be removing RTN_NODELIST and just using RTN_INFO for the Nodelist and Infopack. No reason to have them seperate.

    I was wondering if there are any other mysticbbs sysops out there that might know of a way to automatically unzip the nodelist from the info zip as I do have Mystic setup to automatically merge the nodelist updates. It does not appear to be able to look inside a zip file. I am sure I will be able to figure it out, but I thought I would ask as I am sure someone has solved this.
    Thank you in advanced for helping a newbie.

    I send out the nodelists unzipped separate from the zipped Infopacks every Friday. I only zip the nodelists for the website. Make sure everyone FILEFIX all the FILEBONEs to get them sent to you!

    Mystic automatically does this, make sure you have zip and unzip in the path or Mystic directory, in my case since I am running on Linux I have 7z and zip and unzip in my /usr/bin/ directory. When I was on Windows I had them in the Mystic directory and I think in the system32 directory? Someone tell me if I am wrong.. Make sure you have your archive editor setup completely. Once you have the files in the correct place, the nodelists will automatically get unzipped and merged into your nodelists..
