    Yep...but I started w/.40 and converted. .50 does something wrong w/syntax in the initial cfg/ini file on a fresh install that I'll bet is biting you.

    Yes, as far as I'm someone... :-)
    I'm still using it on my DOS system for areafixing. The file ticker part had too many bugs, I replaced it with filescan several years ago. Any further questions, or why do you ask?

    Well, the problem I'm having is it will not auto-add new echo areas I receiving that end up in my BADMSG area. Now regular echo areas from my fidonet uplink works fine, but I've setup a Fidonet-Internet gateway, so the new newsgroups areas ending up in my BADMSG area, Seal won't auto-add areas to squish.cfg.

    Ideas?

    It will do that for the first time that it runs accross new areas, but the next time it is run it will toss all those messages to the new areas. You do run the SEAL BAD command after you toss your packets don't you? If not try that and see if it doesn't create the new echos.

    Make sure that the from: address on the BADMSGS is defined as an EchoFeed in SEALCFG. Make sure the feed is allowed to auto-create. Make sure a base path is defined to tell SEAL =where= to auto-create. Make sure that definition includes a pointer to a "forwarding list" that contains the tags and descriptions in an .NA-style format. If you've those covered, then check the logs after a SEAL BAD run to see if it is telling you specifically what it doesn't like. Once in a blue moon, there's more in the logs regarding an error
    than what echoes to the screen.

    Okay, thanks Mike, I'll check everything.

    Like I was saying tho, it works fine with my fidonet uplink, so I'm pretty
    sure things are set properly.

    Just search (google) tppatch, & you will find many places, eg

    http://www.brain.uni-freiburg.de/~klaus/pascal/runerr200/download.html
    ( http://www.brain.uni-freiburg.de/~klaus/pascal/runerr200/tppatch.zip )

    Only needed if you get a "Runtime Error 200" message using a fast
    Pentium. Handy for other doors & programs.

    Nope, the areafix part is fine here. It was solely about the file ticking thing
    (and FileScan is a fileticker only, nothing with area fixing).

    I can remember most of the problems I had with it. When Seal was working in a mixed nodes/points environment and you had it set to delete files after they were distributed around, it would delete files because it couldn't seem to "see" all the file .TICs in both the Binkley Style outbound for the Nodes *and*
    the Points. IOW it would delete the files from the filearea once it saw the last Node got it (because the TICs were gone)... but there were still TICs in the point outbound directory... so no file to attach. :((

    I went with NEF... :)
