Thank you Kai.  I cant seem to get binkd.cfg to run my script.  I entered it into binkd.cfg like the hpt toss line that I had. I believe it was exec "nice -n 19 /usr/local/bin/copypkt.sh" however it will not run binkd reports cfg error.. my hpt toss line looks like
exec "nice -n 19 /usr/local/bin/hpt toss afix" /z/in/*.[STFWMstfwm][ouaherOUAHER][0-9A-Za-z] *.[pP][kK][tT]
and works fine...

Regards,

Rick
