<H3>Introduction.</H3>
|

<P>
|
|
File echo groups are to logically divide your file echo's for different
|
|
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
|
|
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
|
|
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.
|
|
<P> <p>
|
|
|
|
<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.
