    VC> Suggest at least for now you ask uplinks to send files conforming to the   
    VC> 8.3 standards.   
      
   Yeah, I dont think that will happen.   
      
   I thought my suggestion would would at least improve the handling. IE: The   
   current handling looses incoming files if two files have the same first 12   
   chars. My suggestion would be to keep the files as is and create the symlinks   
   for DOS purposes - and if they are wrong, its an easier manual fix by the   
   sysop.
