    All Guinness sold in the UK as far as I know comes from Ireland and has seen Park Royal closed in the late 80's or early 90's.

    When delivering newspapers to Dublin I used to bring back a keg or two for my local pub. That is a plane full of newspapers !

    I saw a 6-pqck that was labelled bottled in Canada. I drank it.

    Yes. You can change everything globally by dumping the config to a text file, use a text editor to make whatever changes, and import it back.

    ie.

    DB EXPORT IBJOE.CFG

    DB IMPORT IBJOE.CFG

    If global-changes need to be done while D'Bridge is running, you can use the DBUTIL CHANGE commands.

    ie. DBUTIL CHANGE GROUPACCESS A FORWARDTO 10:1/0 10:1/1

    ..... Will change all group "A" Echomail areas to link to 10:1/0 and 1/1.

    I may have gone past the point of no return... and in doing so I have 100's of MSG files in my DB directory.

    My goal, and not my original one, is to set DB up. Have DB import the the backbone.na file as pass-through, that will change latter, I want to have 229/426 as my up-link and 201 as my down-link... This is all going to happen off my 200 address.

    Is this possible without absolutely sucking the life out of me??

    I can do my FD/FastEcho combo... or FMail because I like asking Wilfred questions.

    That's it for today!!!

    You could try to drum up your own AREAS.BBS file and import that way.

    Nick... I have a few questions before I go to plan Q.

    Okay... for the most part your areas.bbs idea worked... It did so but had all the mail areas toggled as hold... I know I can do the export thing and change that...

    BTW, 100s of MSG files were in the \DB\ directory.

    I did a test after I did all this areas.bbs stuff... And after I poll to your system, my system auto created 4 areas... One of them was FIDOTEST... What NA file doesn't have FIDOTEST... That area has been around since the 70's ... it would have been the 1st area EVER made when creating FidoNET...

    Anyway, at this point I don't care about the pass-through idea. Back to DB auto populating the areas. When I received mail form you and DB created the area it only showed your address in the export field. If I sent mail from 201 to 200 and DB auto created the area it only showed 201 in the export field and not yours.

    Can I get DB to auto populate areas and have DB show 229/426 and 342/201 on the export field... If new mail is received, in an unknown area, DB will create the area. Have those 2 address on the export list and send that message to the address that didn't send it.

    I know how to do this with FastEcho....

    All this and I actually have mail users on my BBS so I can't mess mail delivery up.


    Thanx
