Hello Fermin!

09 May 21 19:04, you wrote to me:

OK. My cfg says:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
-- DRIVE REMAPPING

// Network drive mapping (ServerDrive -> WorkstationDrive).
// NOTE: This is MAINLY used to map drives in AREAFILE's.
//       It won't remap paths given anywhere in GOLDED.CFG.
;MAPPATH o: /home/fido
;MAPPATH D: Y:
;MAPPATH E: Z:
;IF UNIX
;  MAPPATH C:\ /mnt/dos/c/       ; For GoldED/LNX reading AREAFILE's.
;ENDIF

So i understand that is mainly/only for areas. (no other keywords).

In your case, everything in golded.cfg should be in MAC format, and MAPPATH to
be used only to map what areas.bbs has.

E.g. you need only that one:

MAPPATH C:\BBS\msgbase\ /Volumes/bbs/msgbase/

The rest of golded.cfg - MAC format to be used... including path to areas.bbs
file.
