OK, it works, albeit slowly.  New problems though.  The SEEN-BY and PATH
lines are stripped during a Copy action, which is probably not suitable to
my purposes, and also...

Wilfried Brinkmann's PATCH.EXE from ARTFIX09.ZIP [*] refuses to apply Y2K
patches to NETMGR.EXE (under WinXP), saying the file sizes are different,
even after decompressing with PKLITE.  When I comment-out the SIZE line
from NETMGR.PSC, it complains it can't seek to offset 0x238E3 (145635) even
though the file size is 180214 bytes.  I just tried it on my Win98 box and
had the same problem.  A nodelist + web search for Mr Brinkmann seems to
lead nowhere.  :-(
