   I'm hoping some windows BBBS sysops chime in :)   
      
   But..I think you probably do need to use filedirg.000 to tell bbbs where   
   you're data directories are..   
      
   /                        /home/ftp/pub                    Root directory   
   /incoming                /home/bbbs/pub/incoming          @rw:fsysop Uploads   
   /backbone         /home/ftp/pub/backbone/          @rw:fsysop @r:all [BACKBONE]   
   /bbbs          /home/ftp/pub/bbbs/          @rw:fsysop @r:all [BBBS] BBBS   
   [...]   
      
   The first line tells bbbs where my 'root' directory is.   
      
   filedirg.000 is in the /bbbs/ directory.   
      
   Take care,   
   Janis
