[comp.sys.amiga.tech] RDF: default options in the MountList

U211344@HNYKUN11.BITNET (Olaf 'Rhialto' Seibert) (05/10/89)

I got a few complaints from people who said that the defaults you
supply in the Mountlist entry for RDF: (was posted some time ago
on sources/binaries) did not work for them.

I recently (i.e. last night) found the reason for this.

The mountlist entry was suggested to look like

RDF:    Handler = l:RDF-Handler
        Device = trackdisk.device
        Unit = 0
        Flags = 0
#

This worked for me. That was because I was using the Arp 1.1 Mount
command which does what I expected. The 1.3 mount command does
NOT what I expected, but does not complain either. The 1.3 Arp
Mount command complains about this construction.

Solution: Change Handler into FileSystem, and everything starts
working as documented. (except that I somehow by accident must have
deleted the line that made DeleteFile() work). I might send a
maintenance release to Bob in case enough interest is expressed
(by mail, of course).
