Reading the wiki, the oddball way it's describing there, it's important to
note that the .req file is not being created in the outbound dir.

The simplest way to do a FREQ is:
echo filenameiwant.foo >> /sbbs/ftn/outbound/0e32000c.req

If you then want to force a callout:
touch /sbbs/ftn/outbound/0e32000c.dlo
(Or run binkit -l 1:3634/12)
