Hi, Richard-

RW> <hmmm>  I thought he was doing this in his maximus events
RW> instead of binkley.  I was and am wondering why if he's
RW> running binkley in front of max for his dial-up node.  I'd
RW> run this from bink.

I'm doing this from within Maximus because I have three telnet nodes and one
dialup node.  I need to shut down all the nodes when I do the nightly event
because I backup the current day's logs into another directory.  OS/2 locks all
files in use by Maximus and no other programs can access the files unless
Maximus is completely shut down.

I was under the impression that if I ran the event from EVENTS00.BBS that it
would shut down all the nodes (except node 1 and I can disable that in Binkley
also via BT's events) so the nightly backups could run.  Not only are the nodes
not being shut down, but the event is running off of node 2 (which is the first
telnet node; all of my telnet nodes run from the WFC screen) and it's about six
to seven hours off continuiously which is what's confusing me.

Later,
Sean
