OK thanks for all this info.
So it sounds like I can place packets for a node in a directory and each time
packets are placed there I can call the program above and ask it to be sent
to that node and (for example) set the status to HOLD.
Each time I place packets in the directory for that node do I need to call
the creation of a spool entry? I'd look to automate this with a .bat file.
Does it matter if I created a new spool entry record each time packets were
placed in the directory?
So in sum it sounds like
1) pull incoming compressed or raw packets from nodes sending to FD from the
files and secfiles directories.
2) send outbound compressed/raw packets to nodes by placing them a directory
of my choice and calling from a .bat file the create spool process.
