Dataforth: Fix DEPLOY.BAT trailing space bug, session log update

DEPLOY v4.1 fixes critical bug where ECHO >> redirects included
trailing space in MACHINE variable, causing "Too many parameters"
on all COPY commands with subdirectory paths. TS-4L data upload
confirmed working - 84 test files + 90 reports on NAS.

+## Update: ~20:00 - DEPLOY Trailing Space Bug and Data Upload Success
+
+### Critical Bug Found: DEPLOY.BAT Trailing Space
+- **Root cause of ALL "Too many parameters" errors**: `ECHO SET MACHINE=%MACHINE% >> C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT` includes the space before `>>` in the output
+- This sets `MACHINE=TS-3L ` (with trailing space) which causes `T:\TS-3L \LOGS\DSCLOG` to be parsed as two parameters
+- **Fix**: DEPLOY v4.1 moves redirect before ECHO: `>>C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT ECHO SET MACHINE=%MACHINE%`
+- First line uses `>` (overwrite), rest use `>>` (append)
+- DEPLOY v4.1 deployed to NAS at `/data/test/COMMON/ProdSW/DEPLOY.BAT`
+
+### Samba Case Sensitivity - Confirmed OK
+- `smb.conf` has `case sensitive = no` and `default case = upper`
+- No duplicate directories (only `TS-4L` exists, not `ts-4L`)
+
+### TS-3L Deploy Test
+- Ran `T:\UPDATE TS-3L` which calls DEPLOY v4.0 (before trailing space fix)
+- DEPLOY completed, files confirmed v4.0 on machine via TYPE
+- After reboot: NAS still showed old CTONW.LOG/NWTOC.LOG - MACHINE had trailing space
+- Running CTONW manually showed 9x "Too many parameters" on all COPY-to-subdirectory lines
+- `COPY C:\ATE\*.LOG T:\%MACHINE%` worked (no subdirectory in path) but `COPY ... T:\%MACHINE%\LOGS\DSCLOG` failed
+- This confirmed the trailing space theory - space before `\LOGS\` splits the path
+
+### TS-4L Data Upload - SUCCESS
+- TS-4L uploaded data at 20:10 with clean MACHINE variable (no trailing space)
+- **84 test data files uploaded to NAS:**
+  - 5BLOG: 20 files
+  - 7BLOG: 29 files (historical .SHT files)
+  - 8BLOG: 10 files
+  - DSCLOG: 21 files (including today's 38-02.DAT from 03-12-26)
+  - SCTLOG: 2 files
+  - VASLOG: 2 files
+- **90+ work-order Reports** (.TXT files) uploaded to TS-4L/Reports/
+- **3 LOG files** (NWTOC.LOG, CTONW.LOG, CTONWTXT.LOG)
+- CTONW.LOG confirms: `CTONW.BAT v4.0 / Machine: TS-4L` (no trailing space)
+
+### Original STARTNET.BAT Found (from TS-3L backup)
+The actual STARTNET.BAT on DOS machines loads network drivers manually:
+```
+LH /L:0;1,45472 /S c:\net\smartdrv.exe /q
+c:\net\net initialize
+c:\net\netbind.com
+lh c:\net\umb.com
+c:\net\tcptsr.exe
+c:\net\tinyrfc.exe
+c:\net\nmtsr.exe
+c:\net\emsbfr.exe
+c:\net\net start
+net use T: \\d2testnas\test
+net use X: \\d2testnas\datasheets
+```
+- `net start` prompts for computer name (pre-populated from SYSTEM.INI)
+- Could add `/y` flag to suppress prompt, or use MACHINE variable
+- Our v2.0 STARTNET.BAT on ProdSW is a simplified rewrite that was never deployed to machines
+
+### T:\UPDATE.BAT
+- Tiny 4-line wrapper at root of test share: `CALL T:\COMMON\ProdSW\DEPLOY.BAT %1`
+- Allows running `T:\UPDATE TS-3L` from DOS machines
+
+### Rsync Transfer Status
+- Single stream still running from old NAS (.117) to new VM (.9)
+- Snapshot transfer still pending restart
+
+### Files Modified This Update
+- `D:\ClaudeTools\projects\dataforth-dos\batch-files\DEPLOY.BAT` - v4.1 (trailing space fix)
+- Deployed to NAS at `/data/test/COMMON/ProdSW/DEPLOY.BAT`

+
+## Pending/Incomplete Tasks (Updated)
+
+### Immediate
+1. **Re-deploy TS-3L with DEPLOY v4.1** - needs new deploy + reboot to fix trailing space
+2. **Set up AD2 rsync scheduled task** - Sync-FromNAS-rsync.ps1 deployed but no task created (15-min interval planned)
+3. **Run real (non-dry) sync** of Sync-FromNAS-rsync.ps1 on AD2
+4. **Database ingestion pipeline** - No ingestion exists yet. Data flows: NAS -> AD2 -> MariaDB @ 172.16.3.30
+
+### After Data Transfer Complete
+5. **Monitor old NAS rsync completion** - single stream still running
+6. **Restart snapshot transfer** after data completes
+7. **Verify data integrity** - compare file counts between old and new NAS
+8. **Power off old NAS** once confirmed
+
+### Batch File Updates Needed
+9. **UPDATE.BAT** (in ProdSW) - has IF EXIST checks, needs v4.0 treatment
+10. **ATESYNC.BAT / ATESYNCD.BAT** - have IF EXIST checks, need v4.0 treatment (not currently called by AUTOEXEC)
+11. **STARTNET.BAT** - consider deploying updated version or adding `/y` to suppress net start prompt
+12. **AV exclusions on AD2** - add exclusions for C:\Shares\test\ and rsync.exe
