Quite, but the scenario I mentioned is a more important problem but in a
limited manner.

The solution is simple if it applies to any one by going to the correct file
directory (bbs) running touch on an old file name.extention i.e., touch
nodelist.z11

Then import it in to the system for the specific file area.

Then double check that the file files.bbs is created or updated with the file
added.


Just a pain to remember.
