Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Unix file monitoring system.

Hi All, I need to set up file monitoring on my fc4 servers... I installed afick (http://afick.sourceforge.net/) with a cronjob running every 10 mins... but I am looking for live monitoring rather than user initiated checks. Also an application that will e-mail the results would be great... Any suggestions? Si

Hmm - not too sure if this matches what you're looking for, but take a look at inotify (there's a LinuxJournal article on it). It's a relatively new feature in the Linux kernel that reports changes in, or access to, files and directories. I've not used it myself, but there seem to be bindings for both Perl and Python for it, so if you're up for a wee bit of scripting you might be able to make a handy little tool. It probably wouldn't catch changes in files while it's inactive, so you might want to keep afick around, too.
