Hi,
The behavior of the set receive move-to command seems to have
changed between c-kermit 8.206 and 8.209. It used to resolve the full
path of the move-to target upon each transfer, and now it appears to
resolve it on login through IKSD. We have a directory structure like this:
~/
~/a
~/a/incoming
~/a/complete-rx
~/a/outgoing
~/a/complete-tx
~/b
~/b/incoming
~/b/complete-rx
~/b/outgoing
~/b/complete-tx
The .kermrc for the account had lines like:
set receive move-to complete-rx
set send move-to complete-tx
Under 8.206 we could change to directory "a" or directory "b" and issue
a send command like "send test.txt incoming/test.txt". The incomplete
file during transfer would sit in the appropriate incoming directory and
then would be moved to the approprate complete-rx directory on
completion. Under 8.209 the completed files sit in the incoming
directory unless we create a "complete-rx" directory in the home:
~/complete-rx
and then they move there no matter which incoming directory they arrived
in. If this was for one or two sites we could work around it by creating
different accounts for each one, but this is for 1200+ sites and one
account makes it managable. If I could remotely set the send/receive
move-to destinations, that might work, too.
Any comments on the behavior change and on a possible solution?
Thanks,
Derek
