Hello Vincent,

 VC> Quite, but the scenario I mentioned is a more important problem but in

I haven't noticed issues when replacing files but maybe I just didn't see it.

 VC> The solution is simple if it applies to any one by going to the
 VC> correct file directory (bbs) running touch on an old file
 VC> name.extention i.e., touch nodelist.z11

Yes, the file to be replaced should be removed from the FDB, files.bbs, magics
and deleted, both the file and the symlink.

 VC> Then import it in to the system for the specific file area.

 VC> Then double check that the file files.bbs is created or updated with
 VC> the file added.

Yes, is the new file not added to to FDB, files.bbs and magics?

 VC> Just a pain to remember.

Which step is not happening the way it needs too?

 Ttyl :-),
