I think I know where I messed up.
I created the node and set the uplink group list as my fidonet group.
I do not think I should have done this.
I created an echolist called z1.na in my /sbbs/fido/echolists directory.
In the keys section do I specify z1.na or fidonet for access to all my fidonet 
areas?
