Short: CNet Amiga BackUp/LHA Packer Utility!
Author: dotoran@bluemoon.net (david weeks)
Uploader: dotoran@bluemoon.net (david weeks)
Version: 3.01
Type: comm/cnet
Replace: aminet/comm/cnet/cnet_backup.lha
Requires: AmigaOS 2/3.x, CNet Amiga, v3.05c/4.24h+
Distribution: anywhere, everywhere, please mirror!
-- v3.01 --
- This version released February 10, 1997!
- Bug Fixes:
- There was a bug in the AMAINT module that resulted in only the
first backup list to be backed up, even if other lists were
present. (Had a variable conflict in there)
- Changes:
- Added the newer version headers and footers to both the CNetBackUp
and the CNetBackUpA files. Now uses smart version variables and the
parse source method of smart home path seeking.
-- v3.00 --
- This version released January 15, 1997!
- Updated for 3.xx/4.xx version CNet Amiga BBS's.
- Newer error checking included(with translated MCI-Command codes)
- A <Q>uit option was added to all "Pick a List" menus.
- If a file contained in a backup file is MISSING, it will be skipped
when either AMaint or BackUp is performed, instead of resulting in an
error message.
- If BackUp is performed and there are MISSING files, you'll be shown a
listing of these missing files at the end of the BackUp procedure.
- If AMaint runs and has missing files, then an email listing of these
missing files will be sent to ID # 1.
- If AMaint performs a backup, the "log" will be MAILED to SysOp ID # 1.
- Requestors are turned OFF while editing the "Destination" field of a
listing, so that it doesn't cause a lockup when used from REMOTE. Note
that it will only let you specify a Floppy Drive while you have a DISK
IN that drive, so even if you have multiple floppy drives, it will only
let you specify drives that would be "readily available" at THAT time.
- Added the ability to NOT create a second directory structure. If not,
the files will be pulled from their parent locations when the backup
archive is created. This cuts down on the number of read/write ops that
your computer will have to do when creating a backup, not to mention
that the resultant archive will be a bit SMALLER, too as well as the
entire operation taking only a fraction of the time to complete!
- Added the ability to create the archive directly in the destination
path, instead of creating it in the "temp/" path, then COPYING it to
the destination path.
- With the addition of the above feature, the FORMAT operation will now
be performed BEFORE the archive is created, so that if the archive is
set to be created directly to the destination, and if that happens to
be a floppy disk, the disk will still be formatted ahead of time.
- Made the DEFAULT temp path point to a "BackUp/" directory which resides
in the "CNetAmigaBackUp/" folder, which is why it is now suggested that
you STORE this entire program in a partition OTHER than the one where
you have your CNET: assigned.
- If AMaint is set to create(or copy) a BackUp to a Floppy Drive, and it
is seen that there is no floppy IN the drive, the archive will create
(or copy) into the "CNetAmigaBackUp/" directory, instead of "cnet:" as
was used in v2.00.
