Can HFSLIP work with Original-Hotfixnames (with Hashes on the end)?

[AlBundy33]

I'm using ct offline updater to get all hotfixes, which stores the hotfixes with theire original names.

e.g. windowsxp-kb896688-x86-deu_4fb457652be06b59a1a45a5fbad6d6ccc3757c7e.exe instead of windowsxp-kb896688-x86-deu.exe

Is this a Problem for HFSLIP or can I use these files?

You should rename them to MS's intended filename, not the name that your updater uses. It might work anyway, but it is best to go with the standard.

These filenames are the original ms-names: windowsxp-kb896688-x86-deu_4fb457652be06b59a1a45a5fbad6d6ccc3757c7e.exe

Those names are used by Microsoft/Windows Update. I don't know which names are the original names but that's hardly important.

Theoretically, HFSLIP supports them. It is possible that for some the shorter name that is used by the Download Center is required but I'd have to scan the entire HFSLIP code to find that out. It's an exception, though -- I'd have known otherwise.
