I have these settings in scfg

In /nfs/bbs/bbssw is a list of directories which contain a bunch of ZIP files
(mostly).

Then I went to add the new files:

jsexec addfiles -lib=BBSSW -from=system -diz

It went through and added 30,000 or so files.

However, when I go back into scfg it's showing the File Directories as empty

Yet when I go into the BBS, I do see the directories and files:

The file area database files were created in the right area:

```
bbs@bbs:/sbbs/data/dirs/mirror/bbssw$ ls -l
total 14028
-rw-rw-r-- 1 bbs bbs     21 Sep 23 11:19 bbssw_rom01.ini
-rw-rw-r-- 1 bbs bbs      0 Sep 23 11:19 bbssw_rom01.sdt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 bbs bbs    236 Sep 23 11:19 bbssw_rom01.sha
-rw-rw-r-- 1 bbs bbs  60448 Sep 23 11:19 bbssw_rom01.shd
-rw-rw-r-- 1 bbs bbs  30208 Sep 23 11:19 bbssw_rom01.sid
```

So how do I get scfg to display the directories?
