I add that command too!</p>

I don't always update cty.dat in a timely fashion and some sysops don't want to update the software, but DO want the latest prefixes. So these sysops just update cty.dat and wpxloc.raw and run <a href="http://create_prefix.pl" target="_blank">create_prefix.pl</a> manually.<br>
<br>
If, sometime in the future, they try a git pull, it will moan and groan about all the "local changes" and fail. Doing the 'git reset --hard' undoes those prefix changes and the git pull will then succeed.<br>
<br>
I really must get around to moving stuff about so that there is a "local_data" directory, in the same way as there are "local" and "local_cmd" directories. The problem with this is that I suspect that there will be things that could break in some nodes that have used the opensource nature of the code and done their own thing - expecting stuff to be where it has always been.<br>

I agree that it is probably not a good idea to have an automatic<br>
update as source control can go wrong, particularly if one ever does<br>
any mods or updates the prefix list manually.<br>
<br>
But if I were doing it, bearing in mind that I don't use a httpd<br>
interface nor copy my spots into a database, and that also I don't<br>
do any (unofficial [cough] :-) mods, then this line of cron may help<br>
you:<br>

13 3 * * 2 cd /spider; git reset --hard; git pull; service dxspider<br>
restart<br>
