   qnet-ftp.js should be in your sbbs/exec directory. It's what you're already   
   most-likely using to download QWK packets and upload REP packets to Vertrauen.   
   There's never been a "qnet.js" or "syncnet.js" file that I'm aware of, so I   
   don't know what "searches" you're referring to, but maybe just AI   
   hallucinations?

   The simplest way to achive this is to just logon to your QWKnet hub (most   
   likely, Vertrauen) with your QWKnet account and adjust your message pointers   
   on the DOVE-Net subs to point back to the year 2000 or whatever you like.   
   You'll *also* need to configure your system to accept really old messages by   
   setting SCFG->Message Options->Maxmimum QWK Message Age to some big age or   
   "Unlimited".

   The wiki has this explanation of QWK "Remote commands", which also may be used   
   to adjust your message scan pointers by posting specially formed messages, as   
   it says:   
   https://wiki.synchro.net/ref:qwk_cmds   
      
   So... it seems to be covered.

   Can you past here exactly what you changed in your logon.js file?   
      
   When you say the "board will crash" - can you elaborate? is there an error   
   message?

   I don't have a "lastcallers" mod, so must be thinking of something else.
