C.G.,

 CL> updates I have on my todo list LOL

  A Sysop's work is never done. I was fixing glitches with the FTN
areas. On my end:

1) I had errors in the AREAS.BBS file, as they weren't the same as
the message area control codes in Synchronet.

2) To accomodate my "non-connects", I had to set up an insecure area
for incoming packets. But, I discovered that these weren't getting
tossed. So, I had to modify the batch file to move everything from
there into a secure directory before I tossed things.

3) I discovered I had some wrong addresses from the hubs, and a
security violation was the result.

4) I discovered that some of the nodes had a packet password, and
I don't use them. The session passwords and areafix passwords are
the same, though.

  I think I've got the bugs worked out now (now, I just jinxed
myself <G>).
