Folks, I have not used it my self, but some of the fellows who maintain
our FPAC network in Florida use YAPP to update the files on the switches.
FPAC has YAPP built in, we use it with either one of the yapp programs
of automated uploading using f6fbb BBS.
The move to fpac Linux on our network brings up the question of using
other more efficient modes of sending files, so anything that will work
better is most certainly welcome.
