tso
'Show Data Files' displays the 'Current Hostfile' in the third column.
the downloaded file is huge in compareson with the default.
I know this takes a long time to display ( the new version loads the data quickly and progressively - there is a 'More' button below each column )

ok, when i hit update, the nokia entry goes away.
but nothing shows up in its place...
bah, why do i keep forgetting the stanadard unix erroer checking way, run it in xterm...
anyways, it seems i am getting a sudo prompt. Could it be related to me having sshd installed?

tso
The Post Install script should run
to allow the copy.
if you run
this should show the sudo line as the last line. (as long as nothing else has added to it since)
Rick
The Post Install script should run
Code:
echo "user ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/cp /home/user/.advoid/tmphosts /etc/hosts" >> /etc/sudoers
if you run
Code:
tail /etc/sudoers

Ok
A couple of problems.
1. The sudoers line should refer to tmphost not tmphosts
2. There should be a second line
echo "user ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/cp /home/user/.advoid/orighosts /etc/hosts" >> /etc/sudoers
These will both be fixed in the comming new version.
If /home/user/.advoid/orighosts is not present it can be written with any editor and the original hostfile for the N8*0 is just the one line:-
127.0.0.1 localhost

tso You were quick off the mark 
It wasn't there the last time I looked!
It looks like there was a bug in the post-install script.
0.8.0-2 now in the Q'

heh, i have nothing better to do...
it installed, but it seems i still have issues with sudo. probably something local...
it also fails when trying to download a new list:
ah, i see what the sudo issue is now, there is a line missing for the backing up of the hosts file in sudoers.

All times are GMT. The time now is 19:12.
The only way with the current version is to delete the line in
/home/user/.advoid/personal with a text editor and then 'Update system' from the app.
I have a new version in the making which will fix this but it will be a little while yet.
