[Virtualacorn-list] HostFS with datestamp and ShareFS fix

[ATimbrell at aol.com]

Dear all,

We've been testing various  fixes to the problem that turned up with duplicate
files when transferring  stuff via ShareFS under the latest version of HostFS.

So far feedback  from first line testers has been positive apart from two
problems:

On  one machine the HostFS extensions file vanished suddenly
On the same machine  PrintPDF wouldn't produce files

We are still investigating these but in  the meantime could anyone
who feels brave try the following beta  release:

http://www.riscworld.co.uk/virtualacorn/betareleases/hostfs_(datestamp)_beta_n
ov_2008.zip

I  should point out that this is of beta quality and the large changes
that we  have made to HostFS over the last few months may have
some unexpected side  effects that we haven't thus far discovered.

I wouldn't recommend using  this on a VirtualRPC installation that is
of "critical" importance at the  moment, but feedback would be
appreciated (e-mail me directly please - not  via the list).

Thanks

Aaron (With VirtualAcorn hat on)
