Sqpack always renumbers messages, cannot be used with smapinntpd. :(

Hello Tommi,

issues.

Yep, that's a problem for nntp servers. In the BBS/FTN world the messages are always renumbered in all the tossers I have ever used.

BBBS is an exception to that.

What do you use to maintain your bases that are used with smapinntpd?

Is hptutil a workable tool for you?

Fastecho and GEcho can pack and purge without renumbering.

In linux I don't. :)

Hptutil can pack and purge squish bases without renumbering, but I think it is a bit unstable.

Try to stack 2 32bit RPI2 together and let see if it works fine too. :P :P :P
