    why? you should still have a copy and if he deletes the one you sent him, it won't delete your's...

    There must be some other way you could upload it to Vertrauen. I have a hard time believing your iPad is the only device you have available that you can connect to BBSes with. And still, I'm not sure what issue you might be having uploading to a certain directory anyway..

    Also, it would be good if you'd quote the part of the message you're replying to so it's easier for people to follow the conversation.

    I deleted it thinking he would ul it for me but i guess he wont bother.

    I'm not clear:
    1. Why you, a sysop, can't upload files - that seems suspicious
    2. What value the file you're wanting *me* to upload to *my* BBS provides

    If you want to upload something fine, go for it, but I'm not going to do it on your behalf if I have no idea what it is or why anyone else would want it.

    You're basically like: here's a file - put in on your server. With no explanation or rational. It does appear to be a modified text.dat file for sbbs v3.17b, I got that - but why? Why would anyone want *your* modified text.dat file? If there's a rationale, explain that. You didn't.

    So, no, I won't "upload" your file to my system. And if it had any real value, I doubt you would have deleted it yourself. If you're not using the file yourself (presumbably on your own BBS), then how can you expect anyone else to want to use it?

    I'm wondering why you can't "upload it" yourself... I saw
    recently where you said you were using an iPad - is that the only
    computing device you have? Can you upload it from a regular
    computer? What exactly are you trying to do?

    Uploading via ftp isn't any more complex than downloading. It's just a different command.

    And it would still help if you'd quote the part of the message you're replying to so it's easier to follow the conversation.

    why???

    thinking he would ul it for me but i guess he wont bother.

    what if it was corrupted or damaged? why not keep the original just in case? that's crazy, regardless if he uploads it or not...

    that's understandable... what i'm now curious about is why you'd DL the sbbs text.dat, modify it, and send it back... why not do that on your own sbbs installation? it just doesn't make sense, man...
