ShALLaX can you put a flag in magic so it does not update, in case you aren't connected to the net / just want to read the usage?

PLEEEEEEEEEASE

[fuz]

bump!

[ShALLaX]

No, magic 100% needs the internet, take a look inside magic, all it does is download another script then runs it.. heh.... the reason for this is that it makes it much easier for me to maintain the "patches" file and update that regularly, than have to update that AND the magic executable.

here is a novel idea then stop taking the server down so we can always run it..... better yet get a decent mirror.. i can suggest a few if need be.. (what kind of server does it need? maybe i can be of help (i know you are poor)

[ShALLaX]

ive taken the server down twice to upload gentoox... stop bitching.

[fuz]

errr.. ok well you might want to check your dns pointing or maybe its my end but ive had a few problems with connecting to shallax.com servers between 9:30pm -> 3:00am GMT+10 on a regular basis, almost every weekday... i dont know wether its australian name servers.. my isp or you or somewhere in between

i was not bitching i had a serious problem and i thought that the flag would be a help if i could not reach your server (however if its getting patches every time then i guess it wont)

thanks so much for your patience in this matter

*thinks this is a whole misunderstanding*. I took the servers down twice, i thought you were just complaining about that because you were bored... didnt realise you were having real issues.

Im DNS pointing is set up fine.. I'm my only DNS server.

[fuz]

nooo i wasn't but hey thats cool..

i asked a few people on a irc server i frequent (australian) and they could not dns you either... so its not me personally or my isp .. prehaps you should put it in the pile of things to fix later

[ShALLaX]

Heh.
