Now I see ngs dropping on my my Win7 system       that has a much newer TB version.              Since it's happening to both TB's, and the common denominator is the       server, then the problem seems to be the server.                      PQ> If you're having troubles with Tommi's system, then tell        PQ> him.

No problems, then or any other time.              I have tried the Repair function on the ngs that had disappeared       after I resubscribed. But it seemed to make no difference - the odd       ng would drop off the local list again.              I have recently done a Refresh of the ng list. But, for now I just       keep TB running all the time. I don't shutdown the pc. I use       hibernate so that TB doesn't change.                      Og> Stay loose & have fun!              Hard to stay loose in these covid/stay-home/do-not-travel times.                     --         ../|ug              --- TB(Stealth)/Win7        * Origin: nntp://rbb.fidonet.fi - Lake Ylo - Finland (2:221/360.0)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 120/340 123/131 129/305 226/30 227/114 702 229/101       SEEN-BY: 229/424 426 452 550 664 1016 240/5832 249/206 317 400 292/854       SEEN-BY: 317/3 322/757 342/200 633/280       PATH: 221/360 1 280/464 229/101 426           |
