Hi Marty,
PK> Are you able to provide some actual examples of
PK> file names used for these othernet addresses?

Ummmm... Some relationship between the filenames and the EXPECTED addresses
would have been useful. However I now think that is not not relevant.
I just twigged that what is happening for you, also happens for BSO processing,
PROVIDED the user stuffs up the ROUTE.CFG file.......;-)
Your problem is simple, you are confusing Squish because it re-orders the
statements in the ROUTER.CFG file due to the FLAVOURS you are mixing together.
**** CHANGE is your friend! ***
One of my ROUTER.CFG Rules is that for any particular SCHEDULE, I ALWAYS
process mail for a flavour of HOLD for ALL nodes first... THEN I use the CHANGE
verb to set the final FLAVOUR I need for each resultant output file.
So try ordering your file as follows -
1. First, all "SEND HOLD ..." statements.
2. Then, all "ROUTE HOLD ddd xxx yyy zzz ..." statements.
3. Replace your "SEND WORD" entry, (that is really stuffing
everything up), and replace it with "ROUTE HOLD WORLD ...".
This line is your catchall.
5. Lastly, use "CHANGE ..." lines to send things using the
FLAVOUR you want.
Here is a sample schedule that I used some time ago. I use the DEFINE statement
to group nodes, its like a macro expansion -
===================================================
;
SEND HOLD NOARC NOCOMPS
SEND HOLD MYBOARDS FAKENET 4DPOINTS
SEND HOLD IPNODES
ROUTE HOLD Z3CR
ROUTE HOLD 3:772/100 N772C
ROUTE HOLD 3:772/1.10 3:30185/10
ROUTE HOLD BBBOARDS
ROUTE HOLD NWSTAR
; This catches all unsent traffic.
CHANGE NORMAL HOLD All
; Lastly CHANGE things to whatever you want.
;
====================================================
The mail sending event just changes the flavour of the packets.
So the bottm line is to ensure the ORDER of events is logical and correct, you
MUST not mix flavours WITHIN the same schedule. Process to ONE flavour
(preferably HOLD), then CHANGE the resultant to whatever you want.
Cheers..........pk.
