I don't have an OS/2 setup so I       haven't tried it.               DW> I have been using IREX for this but the daemon mode eats a lot of        DW> resources and slows the BBS down.

There are many areas in that FDN for all types of files for       OS/2 and is active.              That is a Fidonet FDN but it's not on the Filegate. If you (or anyone) would       like to link for that (or other file/mail areas) we can do that.               Ttyl :-),        Al              --- GoldED+/LNX        * Origin: The Rusty MailBox - Penticton, BC Canada (1:153/757)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 120/340 601 220/50 226/30 227/114 702 229/100       SEEN-BY: 229/101 200 426 664 1014 240/5832 249/109 307 317 292/854       SEEN-BY: 342/200       PATH: 153/757 261/38 218/700 103/705 280/464 229/101 426           |
