It's an old way of requesting that a threading database be initialized. It's obsolete now given the near-universal implementation of XOVER. I doubt there still exists any server that supports XTHREAD DBINIT and doesn't support XOVER, so the code that sends that command could probably just be removed from trn. > Less regular, and I'm not really sure this is generated by trn, since in > this log file another client was also generating these messages is the > following command: > 'XMODE READER' > What's the cause of this? I believe that some servers used that form instead of MODE READER at some point. It's also obsolete; everyone who needs it uses MODE READER. -- Russ Allbery (rra@stanford.edu) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> Please send questions to the list rather than mailing me directly. <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/faqs/questions.html> explains why. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: Thawte.com Understand how to protect your customers personal information by implementing SSL on your Apache Web Server.
