Hey all,

What is required to update a Win32 Synchronet installation to latest CVS? Are there prebuilt snapshots somewhere? If I have to compile it myself, can I do it with the current version of Visual Studio?

I swear I've done this before, but it was a good few years ago and I remember nothing.

Thanks in advance for any help.

You don't have to, but you could.

Alright, I think I'm getting it. Executables in sbbs_dev.zip, and most everything else in sbbs_run.zip.

I guess I make sure my backups are up to date, extract everything except the cnf/cfg files over the top of my installation, and manually merge in any updates to the INI files and other customized files, eh?

Thanks for getting back to me.
