what does "which nice" return?

binkp doesn't care about the case of inbound or outbound files... it only
sends what it is told to send... if it is reporting lower case file names
that it cannot find in a *nix environment then the problem is whatever is
creating the ?LO files and writing lower case file names in them when it is
actually generating uppercase file names...

 JL> 90148c00.th0: is actually 90148C00.TH0

the ?LO file pointing to it contains what??


 JL> I found this in binkd.conf:

interesting... i've never seen that before... i don't even use it...

 JL> But, I guess it only works with incoming bundles?

t'would seem that way...
