 ER>> I setup my golded.cfg to be absolute paths pretty much anywhere.

 MB> Sounds like that is not your issue then.

Nope, definitely hasn't been apparent to be. :)

 ER>> Properly, those files are actually named agora-agn_bbs.* which have

 MB> AREADEF SYNCHRO.TEST "" 0 Local SMB e:\ged\smb\smb\msgbase . (R/O)

 ER>>>> Any help would be greatly appreciated. So far I've had better

 MB> Now that I think about it, did you compile the nodelist?

 MB> $ gnlnx -C
