Dplus Host file, append rather than overwrite ?

Post by G1ZRN »

Hi all,

Sorry if this question has been asked before, I did do a search but couldn't find an answer.

If there any way of appending the Dplus Host file rather than it being overwritten when updating ?

It would save me having to SSH/nano into the file to add my local repeater's details everytime it updates.

PS. using V4 RC4.

Thanks,
Mike G1ZRN.

Such customized entries should be placed in /root/DPlus_Hosts.txt instead, which doesn't get overwritten when updates happen.
