  • sbbsecho error #2

    From Lord Time@VERT/TIME to Digital Man on Thu Dec 21 14:44:30 2017
    in the linux version, running under debian, sbbsecho build date of 12/19/17

    at the linked nodes - (any node number) - inbox directory
    I put a path of /sbbs/inbound/secure and save it and then exit then come back in
    the path name is gone, if I look at the sbbsecho.ini it show it there

    little update, if I don't put in the /sbbs/inbound/secure back in sbbsecho before I save it, it not there in sbbsecho.ini (just happened to look)

    That's a feature: it's keeping you from shooting yourself in the foot.

    Your inbound directory is not an inbox. Unless you're using the binkd ibox feature, you probably don't want to specify file boxes. I think echocfg help text makes this clear. Let me know if not.
