Index of Subjects Hi Morton, I'm sending a copy of this to the CSuite developers and ccn-tech for their input. I am unable to reproduce the problem here as the zip utility legally puts a space in between each file. Why the VTN doesn't is possibly a fault with the zip script. Techs and CSuite people: Can you check the zip script to see if it's failing here? CCN's present version works fine, but VTN's does not.
