 RZ> Maybe somebody killing it as dupe (when have no changes)?

But it used to work ok with no changes.

I had a look on Malcolm's (filegate source in this zone) system and he
doesn't have any later backbone.ww in the filegate backbone area either. I
believe Barry's feeds that out to the filegate as well as wwb downlinks ??

If so, then maybe Barry's system isn't hatching it.

Also, aren't there a couple of new echoareas lately?

Cheers,
                Rick
