The format of each line of the field substitution file is: <field identifier> = <field
name>
where <field identifier> is a single character SEP field and <field name> is a
valid NSML field name. An example would be
1 = video-id . This causes the contents of
the APP1 field, identified by 1, to be put into the NSML field video-id instead of the usual
APP1-1.
RXSITEIDLE=<seconds>
The idle time value may be set from the client via SITE IDLE=<seconds> where
<seconds> is a count of seconds. For instance:
SITE IDLE=900 sets the idle timeout to 15 minutes
SITE IDLE=0 disables the timeout
The client can query the rxnet server to find out what the current idle timeout is with SITE
IDLE. You can also define an idle timeout value to override the localtimeout setting by
inserting
RXSITEIDLE=<seconds> in the file /site/env/rxnet.
n
You can also define an idle timeout value to override the "localtimeout" setting by inserting
RXSITEIDLE=<seconds> in the file /site/env/nxserver.
RXOLDNLST=1
FTP clients that use the MGETcommand make an NLST request to get the list of story/file
names for retrieval. The LIST and NLST commands produce the identical output, a
directory listing. The NLST command produces a name list, that is a list of subdirectories in
the directory and a list of stories id's in a queue.The iNEWS FTP Server produces a list of
names without story attributes. If you want the iNEWS Server to include story attributes, put
RXOLDNLST=1 in the rxnet environment. If you do not want story attributes included, use
RXOLDNLST=0 .
n
The bold entires are exactly what to place in the file. Do not use an export statement after
the line.
