Two questions for now:
We already covered this in #synchronet, but just for everyone else's sake:
This isn't Sync specific but does anyone know the areafix command in fidonet to add all areas? I have tried ALL, +ALL, %+ALL ... I'd like to have all of them but there's too many to do one by one.
The answer depends on the hub's software in use. Usually, %+ALL works, but a %HELP query should give you more info.
And second question - Sbbsecho (Linux) is giving me an error I can't work out. At the end of the process when it packs outbound netmail, I get a bunch of "error 2 (no such file or directory) opening listpath (test) to search for area (FIDOTEST) description" It gives me that error for 5 different groups (FIDOTEST is the first of them). I can't find any missing directories or files... I am running as root at the moment so it can't be a permission issue? Any ideas?
