Re: Add CD-ROMS

Oh, use the VFileSyn I just released, and here is what I would do to add the
CDROMs:

1. Run VFileSyn normally to synchronize any files that aren't already.
2. Add the CDROM's to your databases and make sure you set it as a CDROM and
not Hard Drive.
3. Run VFileSyn with these options:
Enable "Use FILES.BBS if Available" (so it will import the descriptions)
Disable "Import File Description" (no need to slow it down since you use
files.bbs)
Disable "Add Zip Comment to Files" (no need since it is read only)
Disable "Hatch Network Files" (no need for that)
Disable "Delete Missing Offline Files) (no need)
Enable "Scan CD-ROMs" (so it will scan the discs)

That should add the CDs to your database. You will need a CDROM drive for each
CD you want to have online of course.

Hope that helps further.

Steve
