[BlueOnyx:01780] Re: DFIX Critical Update

[Colin Jack]

Hi Greg,

I'm posting here in case others have the same problem - this way you only have to reply once. :o)

I have used DFIX  for some time - installed manually and operated from the CLI - but decided to use the 'new' NewLinQ setup to install the new version.

Installed okay (eventually) on BQ but not on BO. 

On the successful BQ server dfix.sh has disappeared from my /etc/cron.minutely/ directory but I cannot find any instructions on using the new version installed by NewLinQ ... any clues? There is nothing on the CCE. Can't find anything on the Compass website in the way of instructions.

Thanks

Colin

Hi TK.

The files created by Compass are distributed only through NewlinQ.

To make life easier, you can ask your server to check for new files 
daily, and you will be notified by email when they are available in your 
software updates tab on your server.

Detailed instructions for NewLinQ setup are available at 
http://www.compassnetworks.com.au/?page=newlinq

Regards,
Greg.
