Hi Mike,

Thanks for the explanation. After I sent the message I came to think of
a similar case in my BBS. I had an echo named MS-Windows and I decided
to go back to the TAG name WINDOWS. I did the change but nothing
happened.

After a while it dawned on me that I had another directory with that
name. It is the Windows file directory totally separate from Fido.

So I went back to MS-WINDOWS even though the TAG still is WINDOWS.

Have a nice day,

Holger
