[ccp4bb] BDB rsync

2019-07-05 Thread Eric Williams
Has anyone successfully accessed the BDB lately? I downloaded the whole thing by rsync about a year ago, but I am no longer able to do so. I don't seem to be getting any response from the rsync server at all. If others are able to access it, I should be looking for a problem on my end. Thanks. :)

Does anyone here have experience running sf_convert? I know it's not part of CCP4, but it does rely on CCP4 for converting structure factors to MTZ format. When I try to run it, I get errors that suggest that my shell isn't bash, but it really is. The program output is as follows. sf_convert -o
