You should use the command "ADD <password> <interval>" for the first part
of your multi-part posting, and for each subsequent part use the command
"ADD <password> <parent-archive-name>", where 'parent-archive-name' is
the full Archive-Name of the part 1 posting.
So, assuming your FAQ's Archive-Name is foo/bar-faq, you wanted your FAQ
posted every 30 days and you wanted to use the password "foobar", the ADD
command for the first part would be "ADD foobar 30" and the command for
each subsequent part would be "ADD foobar foo/bar-faq".
See the FAQ server guidelines for more information. You should be able to
get a copy from ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/faq-maintainers/faq-server-help.
Cheers,
Nick
