User chang = yes       save it and try then to move all files in /var/badtic to /var/inbound/       try to run mbfido ti       and if it still not make the file echo and the files is been moved to /badtic       start mbsetup again and go to 10.1 again and be sure that fido_adm.fa is       change to only have the 'fileecho echo-decription' and all other lines comment       out.       then change area = fido_adm.fa       filegate =No       save it an go out from mbsetup and move the files from badtic to inbound and       run mbse ti again.       It should create the file echo by the tic file.                      Take care,        Gert               - Get the best with linux -               --- Msged/LNX 6.2.0 (Linux/2.6.33-gentoo-r2 (x86_64))        * Origin: KofoBBS at ftp://fido1.kofobbs.net (2:230/150)    |
