I'm getting the following error with tickit. Saying tic password is empty. As you will see, the field is occupied with attached sbbsecho.ini below is the same as it is in the tic file. I get the same error on all the tic files both for NODELIST and FGAZETTE Thanks in advance

See the difference?

Try changing that domain to "fidonet" and see if that fixes it.

OK, I'll try that. It was right in front of me, and I didn't see it. I'll let you know. Thanks

I'm not sure if FidoNet domains are supposed to be case-sensitive or not. One spec (FRL-1028) states that the domain must only contain lowercase letters (or decimal digits, and -, _, and ~). Any have a good definitive reference for whether FidoNet domains are supposed to be case-sensitive?

That, I can't say, but I'll try to find out an answer and let you know. If the specs say it's supposed to be all smalls, I'd go by that. I've never used the domain name till I switched to Binkit, so this was something new for me.

I'm using tickit, with the tickit/nodelist_handler.js. It seems to be working, but one thing is puzzling me. It's copying the new nodelist to a older file name instead of keeping it the same. I was under the impression that the old nodelists should be deleted, then the new nodelist should be coppied to the nodelist directory, at least this is the way I have done it with older versions of tic that I could control with a batch file. This copying to an older file extension doesn't seem right to me, please advise if I'm doing something wrong, or i found a bug, and how to correct if possable. See below log file. I also included a portion of my tickit.ini file that handles the nodelist. Running sbbs 3.18b, under windows

Tickit, or I guess the nodelist handler writes that file out as you have it set in echocfg -> Domains -> Fidonet -> Nodelist.

I have mine set to fidonet.txt so there is no numbered extention.

It won't hurt anything either way but the extention can be confusing.

Ok Thanks. I may have to just get used to that. But I prefer it to be updated to the newer version ext, and recompile.
