You know I was just thinking about this. They might not --lint with lynx downloads due to line wraps? someone mentioned "^M" characters?? I'm like a chicken with my head cut off here at work. So I don't even remember what editor I used with the evilrules.cf :-)
I don't have ftp running on the server. I was actually going to see if anyone wanted to mirror my site, or just the files. I think distributing the lists to another site is a good idea. Any takers for mirroring? --Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Robert Leonard III [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2003 10:48 AM > To: Chris Santerre > Subject: Re: [SAtalk] Too many rules? > > > Okay, well it must be something else then.. actually the > evilrules.cf are > the ones that wont --lint and seem to cause the system to > freeze.. my guess > is that they somehow get hidden characters when I save them > down.
