- Subject: Re: problem with jan_receive area and quotas
- Lines: 38
-
- Having read all the different ideas of how to prevent users misusing
- the receive area, I haven't seen anyone suggesting a modification of
- MFSDISP (or was it mentioned?). From what I remember when this was a
- topic in 1987 that was the way to go. We had these problems ourselfs
- with users trying to get more space and the system disk filling up.
-
- A simple addition to the MFSDISP.FOR and running BUILD_MFSDISP.COM
- and this problem is solved. This will even solve the problem of users
- trying to cooperate on the same node. I guess they will start helping
- each other using different nodes next...
-
- What the addition does is to check if the sending and receiving node
- is the same. If so, the file is sent as mail.
-
- ! Let's send files from local user to local user as mail /BoK 870731
- ! Check to see if we consider it mail
- ELSEIF (.NOT. VMSDUMP .AND.
- 1 (CLASS .EQ. 'M' .or.
- 2 TYPE .EQ. 'NOTE' .or.
- 3 TYPE .EQ. 'MAIL' .or.
- 4 FROM_NODE .EQ. TO_NODE )) THEN
- RECEIVE = .FALSE.
- NOTIFY = .FALSE.
- FILE = 'JAN_SYS:JMAILER.TXT'
- WAKE = 'Mail_Daemon'
- STAMP = .TRUE.
-
-
- All the code except for "FROM-NODE .EQ. TO_NODE" is in the file
- as delivered from Joiner. So one line is enough to "fix" it.
- At least it has helped us.
