In scfg I create a file area, test.

Then I go to Import Areas >
FidoNet FILEGATE.ZXX >
Parent Directory I enter ../data/dirs/
List File: /home/bbs/h/sys_file.na ...

Oh eff me. I did exactly this and I got 0 files imported last time, now it's 
working. Maybe it was something malformed in the other .na files I tried to 
import. Oh well. It did that on 3 new networks I tried to add.

At least I'll have this for reference next time so I can tell myself I'm not 
insane!
