Toss TIC+files into BBS and to subscribed downlinks
The '[Filetoss]' stanza tasks MUTIL with processing .TIC files found in your defined 'Inbound Echomail' path.
MUTIL then will move/upload those files to the appropriate file bases (optionally creating them) in Mystic. Files are then further tossed to the fileboxes of all downlinks that are connected to a file base.
To enable this function you modify the '[general]' stanza as follows:
[general] Filetoss = true
There a several switches you can configure that relate to this function.
Bad Files
Directory where failed files are moved, or comment out to disable archive of failed files. This includes incorrect file sizes, bad CRC, missing area when auto-create is disabled, duplicate files, unsecured, etc.
bad_dir=c:\mystic\files\badfile
Unsecure Files
This setting instructs Mystic to toss .TIC files from the defined unsecure directory in addition to secure inbound directory.
This setting uses a Boolean True or False switch.
unsecure_dir = false
This next setting if set 'true' tasks MUTIL to process files that are FROM an unknown node. If 'false', they will be moved to the 'bad' directory or deleted depending on configuration. An 'unsecure' node is one that is not directly configured as an Echonode within your Mystic configuration.
This setting uses a Boolean True or False switch.
allow_unsecure = false
Default Description
What file description to use when no .DIZ, long description or description can be found from the file or .TIC file.
no_desc=No Description
Credited Uploader
This sets the name of the uploader to use when adding .TIC files into the local file bases in Mystic.
uploader=Mystic TIC
File Integrity Checks
These settings check size and CRC values supplied in .TIC file (if found) against the actual file. If the value does not match, then skip tossing the file (moving it to the 'bad' directory (if enabled))
This setting uses a Boolean True or False switch.
check_crc = true check_size = true
