    Hi Sean,

    I seem to remember doing this in the past, where a file is released daily to one file echo and I was able to turn dupe checking off

    Is this an assumption or a question? :-)

    Question. And not the answer. I get almost the same file, iplist.lst, every week into R50ROUTE. Some weeks it never changes so BBBS sees it as the same file. I need to turn off file dupe checking in the file echo R50ROUTE :)

    If the file comes to you through TIC distribution, then the problem is with who creates the TIC file and forgot to put the REPLACES keyword (with the correct value: the iplist.lst file). AFAIK, BBBS handles perfectly this optional clause.

    I checked the tic file this monring and it has the REPLACES line. I will upload the next one I get as I manually did it this morning

    Choose wisely... Peter? Egon? Ray? ... ... Gozer? ;-)

    I've just checked my inbound and I have a lot of bad ticfiles produced by the same behaviour that you have raised. :-/ Or, we have ghosts everywhere, or there is something in the btick process.

    A reveure!!

    I have a dirty python script that now reads badtics, removes the ones in the btickube.dup that match and reruns bbbs btick
