Mike,

Once again, you prove your worth as the RA (and compatiables) GOD!

I double chekced the inhertiance permissions on the cdtmp diretory, on drive 
f:\ (local) and discovered that "EVERYONE" did not have full
access. What do 
you know....

Next challenge- one worth noting for us old folks, what is the correct 
syntax for the tz environment variable- without looking?

FrontDoor manual shows TZUDT=-0500 (Unix based) while other bbs related docs 
show tz= OR tzutc=

I looked into the RA manual & walked off for another beer. At least I had 
something in hand.

Thanks zomorf- I did use your Unzip/Zip archive syntax as I had changed from 
pkzip to zip but never changed the switches, so it did serve well. In the 
days gone by, Microsoft did not have permissions- even in mother may i.

I am fighting the urge to return to Unix as that makes more sense and I am 
definately a network guy- IOS is for the young kids, give me CatOs any day.

If & when I defeat the Win32 challenges, I will have EleBBS running on 
adreline pumping FreeBSD. May even buy a twelve pack and see what we can do 
on Solaris. Are you listening Scott?

Thanks again for the assistance.

phil
