      From: nospam.g00r00@f215.n129.z1.fidonet.org               RF> I finally found backup I did the was about a year ago A46 and was able to        RF> recover my menus and ansi's, etc. Didn't back up door folder so doing        RF> that from scratch.        RF>        RF> 1st question is can I get my old user file inserted somehow. I had a        RF> lot of users and I really would like to get that file with that data        RF> from A46 (what's name of file anyways?)              Sounds like you have many options. If you have a full backup of your A46 BBS       then the easiest thing to do would be to restore the A46 backup and then       upgrade it to A47.              If you want to start fresh with the latest A47 but keep your A46 users then       copy "users.dat" from the A46 data folder to A47 data folder. As long as you       are using A46 final release, you can copy the users.dat file directly into A47       as the data format has not changed between the versions.               RF> 2nd question I used Mutl Nodelist.ini (where it tells to merge my fido        RF> and fsxnet list. No errors and I'm sure it processed correctly. But        RF> when I go to Message Menu, select B for browse nodelist and search for        RF> 1:124/5014 or any node number I get nothing. I press ? to get example        RF> of how to search and nothing comes up. So I don't know what is wrong              Mystic expects your Nodelist to be called nodelist.txt in the data folder. It       does not require any compliation, Mystic parses raw nodelists directly in       real-time. If you don't have a nodelist.txt in your DATA folder then the       search option will not work.              ...
