The first time you run makenl with the -p switch (-process), it will create
files that are put in the master.

Here is the one you'll use for SportNet.... just make the the obvious changes
for the net, run makenl in the -TEST mode to make sure there are no error.
(You're going to need to change the path to your netmail folder.)
===Start net110.ctl===
make net 110 ; note explicit name of file simplifies processing
outfile net110 ;master file and output file have SAME name
submit 24:10/0 ;where you send updates, CRASH and/or HOLD optional
netaddress 24:110/0 ; your network address here
messages c:\????? ; path name to mail server's network mail area
PRIvate ok
ALLOwunpub 1
MINphone 1
; No other options are needed. Master directory and output directory will
; default to the current directory.
;
;
Data
You'll not need a master folder as the output will be stored in the folder
where makenl is run from. You'll edit this control file as you add nodes.
Remember to follow the order in which the entries are entered. If they're
wrong, it will give you an error. Always run the -TEST mode first!!
As mark stated previously, makenl will attach the segment and will be sent to
your RC.
