2.4 I do not seem to be sending any bulletin mail to my link partners, what is wrong?
2.5 How can I automatically limit the amount of debug logfiles that are stored?
2.6 I updated my Linux distribution and now Spider cannot read the users file or the dupefile, what is the problem?
+ 2.7 Since I last updated I seem to be getting duplicate spots appearing.
+ 2.8 I have deleted a message but it is still there, why?

reset the home_node using the _\bs_\bp_\bo_\bo_\bf command like this ..

Assuming that the node_call you are changing is gb7adx.
This will limit your debug data down to the last 10 days

Almost certainly this is a change in the db format of perl. Follow
these few steps to correct the problem.
+\bo restart the cluster
That should solve the problem.

+ What has probably happened is that the dupefile has got corrupted in
+ some way. Simply delete the /spider/data/dupefile and restart the
+ cluster. It may take a little time to become fully functional but
+ should solve your problem.

+ This is now the way messages are handled for deletion in Spider. If
+ you look closely you will see a 'D' following the message number.
+ This message is marked for deletion and will be deleted in 2 days if
+ nothing further is done. Optionally you can use the command
+ _\bd_\be_\bl_\be_\bt_\be_\b/_\be_\bx_\bp_\bu_\bn_\bg_\be to delete it immediately.
