   That is more helpful and I am assuming the mbse version is 1.0.7.17 or 18 or    
   19   
   , correct?   
      
   OK log in as mbse via terminal prog then do :   
      
   ls -la bin/mb*   
      
   You should have the same as me but not the same dates :

   The editor Golded executables are there along with various archivers and other   
   utils (starting with pkt etc).   
      
   Check that you have the first block as installed by the mbse installer.   
   The second block have to be installed depending on your system but I recommend   
   all of the archivers (rar is registered so I have more files).
