DM, et. al,
I moved my SBBS directory to a new machine, including my path and SBBS* variables (SBBSNODE, SBBSEXEC and SBBSCTRL) and when I try to make a QWK packet I get the following error:
Node 2 !ERROR 2 (No such file or directory) (WinError 2) in pack_qwk.cpp line 731 executing "c:\sbbs\exec\pkzip c:\sbbs\NODE2\temp\REALITY.qwk c:\sbbs\NODE2\temp\*.*" access=255 (useron=Poindexter Fortran)
The odd thing is that I can run that command just fine in a commmand prompt.
Any suggestions?
It looks like you don't have "c:\sbbs\exec\pkzip.exe". I would recommend using infozip anyway (zip.exe and unzip.exe, which should already be in your exec directory) - but these do require different command-lines than pkzip/pkunzip.

The weird thing is that I have pkzip in my exec directory, and I copied the command line with the path into a command prompt to test it out, and it worked.
Are the zip/unzip command lines for SCFG documented somewhere? I'd certainly move to them if so.

They're in the stock .cnf files. I can't think of anywhere else they'd
be documented off hand, but here you go (for Info-ZIP):
