Hello Digital,

No, just my own sysop account and guest.

 DM> Cool, with that info, I'll see if I can reproduce the symptom.

I have changed some of my default login options and am now getting the "Times up." message again.

1. I changed my editor to Syledit.

2. I disabled the spinning pause prompt.

3. I changed the default mail scan to search for new personal messages instead of a new mail scan.

4. I changed the default transfer protocol. I hit "q" at that prompt so there is no default protocol. I do that so I can choose zmodem when I am remote and local copy when I am local.

I think one of those changes may have caused the issue.

 Ttyl :-),
