   I was using the Synchronet Control Panel. Then I selected List Users from the   
   menu and went from there.    
      
   In the meantime, I gave full permissions to 'Everyone' for all d:\sbbs   
   files/folders and that seemed to fix it! This install was zipped and copied   
   over from an install on another system so I’m not surprised it ended up   
   being a permissions problem. The    
   reason I copied over the install from the other system is that I could not for   
   the life of me figure out how to export/import all of my File Area files and I   
   didn't want to go through the tedium of using the addfiles utility one-by-one   
   to recreate what I    
   had in my old install.
