  34 <PRE>Please don't diss people's work (aka the Unreal comment). It's not called
  35 for and a lot of hard work has gone into it. Sorry to fill up peoples'
  36 inboxes.

  48 &gt;<i> It was 06:14 PM 3/24/2003 +0000 when Craig Edwards came up
  49 </I>&gt;<i> with:
  50 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;Is there a way to keep services in sync if its desynced, by
  51 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;resyncing it at fixed intervals? This would not only fix
  52 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;problems caused by (ab)use of operserv raw, but would also fix
  53 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;problems caused in other ways (ive had a couple of desyncs
  54 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;before caused by buggy server software etc) - it could be set
  55 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;from config to say resync once every 24h or once every week or
  56 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;whenever the admin prefers, by simulating a form of &quot;warm
  57 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;reboot&quot; where it could somehow retrieve all network
  58 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;information again from the uplink and redo its lists from
  59 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;scratch, kinda like a rehash.... or maybe do this on /os
  60 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;rehash if a commandline option is given? Just an idea...
  61 </I>&gt;<i>
  62 </I>&gt;<i> Not if the ircd doesn't support it, and as far
  63 </I>&gt;<i> as I know none does (certainly not Bahamut,
  64 </I>&gt;<i> any version), unless you squit and reconnect.
  65 </I>&gt;<i>
  66 </I>&gt;<i> And besides, use of the RAW command is not
  67 </I>&gt;<i> recommended for the very reason it can lead
  68 </I>&gt;<i> to desynchs, and IMHO any services should not
  69 </I>&gt;<i> waste time/cpu/memory/whatever to try and
  70 </I>&gt;<i> fix input errors, it should be left to whoever
  71 </I>&gt;<i> inputs the wrong commands to refrain from
  72 </I>&gt;<i> doing so.
  73 </I>&gt;<i>
  74 </I>&gt;<i> As for buggy server software (are you running
  75 </I>&gt;<i> Unreal? =P), bugs should be fixed on the server's
  76 </I>&gt;<i> side, not on the services' if they do their job.
