Agreed, but this is what confused me... 

"If you *don't* want links to be able to add areas from your areas.bbs, then
set that option to true (or Yes in EchoCfg)."

Shouldn't that be NO in echocfg as you stated above in the reply?  Either way
I'm sure I have it correct as I hae "P" (pass-thru) entries in my areas.bbs...
