ipzapfsf

This program is part of nightly maintenance for the LIFE system. It purges the
agency queues of all files no longer in the FSFxxx RemoteViews.

It has 2 sections :
    First is to make a list of all current files.
    Second to scan all the agency queues to delete all not on our list.

It uses a parameter file to decide which FSF/RemoteViews to use and which
queues to zap. This, by default, is tables/setup/LIFE_MAINT.

Pls also note that you will need to zap res forks :
15 5 * * * ( cd /dmsmwire1data1/fip/spool/newlife ; /apps/bin/p.rsrc -d )
