In my case Marty, I looked it over at a least a dozen times and couldn't
spot the trouble.  The only items that looked awkward on the area
configuration screen were the 'zero' read/write settings for the area (BTW,
that area has been deleted from distro on the WWB); maybe they should be
set for something a bit lower than Bob's level, and certainly lower for
other nodes/points that you don't want to share the area(s) with.

You could try a one-time only:

  FastEcho TOSS -S

Per the FastEcho.Doc (top of page 114), it will "temporarily disable
all the security functions provided by FastEcho".  If it works then
there is/are some -other- setting(s) stopping the toss from working
properly, which would require you to step through your config settings
again.  (Page 114 could be a good guide for things to look for, IAC.)

Cheers,
Paul.

... I gotta get a new computer.  This one makes too many mistakes.
