<H3>Introduction.</H3>
<P>
File echo groups are to logically divide your file echo's for different
2002-04-23 20:00:55 +00:00
file distribution networks.
This screen also has a lot of fields that are needed for the auto area create.
When a new area is created a bbs download area is made and a new tic area record
is made.
It makes sense to select the groups by uplink and
2002-02-17 13:24:26 +00:00
area file that is available for that file distribution network. By doing that
downlinks can connect areas that are not yet connected at your bbs but are
2002-04-23 20:00:55 +00:00
available from your uplink. If you are connected to the filegate then there is
one area file for all distribution groups. You must then create a file group for
each distribution group, ie. Fidonet, SDS etc. The name of that group must
exactly match the comment field in the group in this setup.

<h3>Cost Sharing.</H3>
<P>
With the setup of groups you can also specify the Cost Sharing for the
files distribution. The unit cost is the cost for each transmitted file
if the unit size field is zero, or the unit price per transmitted unit size.
The final cost is multiplied with the "Add Prom." factor to add taxes or so.
Also if your uplink sends advanced .tic files, the cost found in that .tic
file will be added to the cost as well. Further you can set the final price
to divide between your downlinks or let them all pay the full price.
