Hi Alan,

It would appear I have Al's email wrong.

No it's al@trmb.synchro.net. Apologies if I wrote it that way. I don't know why but I often leave the "h" out and it won't work that way.

Ttyl :-),

you.

Currently I am going through every last note on the BBS regarding menus
and setting them as I seem them to be.

I cannot get sbbsecho to run.

3 new installs, nothing.

What does that mean? When you type "sbbsecho" in the "exec" directory, nothing happens? You get an error message?

I never need to run sbbsecho directly. It runs from an timed event in external programs. Be sure it is enabled and it will run whenever fidoin.now is found in your /sbbs/data directory. The same is true for outbound when fidoout.now is found.

On my linux box I can run inbound with "exec/sbbsecho -ce" in my sbbs directory, or outbound with "exec/sbbsecho -ni".

Are you running under windows or linux?

I just get a flash that looked like a box.

I used another application to do it, echoic is what I needed anyways.

Really tried my best on the BBS setup. Wish me luck on BinkIT.
