Do you have one config file that is used for the -c  switches?

If you INCLUDE area config files in the FIDOCONFIG then the includes are part of the one FIDOCONFIG (the initial config file set by huskymak.cfg CFGDIR/CFGNAME variable).

 RS>   Can the AREAFILE statement be repeated for each areafile?

Thanks to the includes the one and only required areafile is the fidoconfig:

golded.cfg:

AREAFILE fidoconfig /etc/fido/config

This should read all areadefinitions of your seperate areafiles too.

Btw, that's what the fconf2golded tool does. It reads the FIDOCONF with all includes and write them into the golded area file. It gives you an additional write to your filesystem but the read content should be the same.

Regards

Kai
