Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends.

1. Now enter System Data | Pathnames (part 2)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
List path
Rcvd path
Bad tics     C:\PCB\FIDO\BADFILE\
Dupe path
Auto-add     C:\PCB\
Tag path     C:\PCB\DL06
TMP path     C:\PCB\ALLFIX\WORK
Template     C:\PCB\ALLFIX\TEMPLATE
Billing
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Bad tics  If you already have a bad packet file use it here if you want.
Auto-add  Where ALLFIX will create any new file directories if needed.
          The only time this would happen is if one of your downlinks
          sends in an AREAmsg request for an file area that you don't
          currently carry.  ALLFIX will forward the request and create a
          new file directory here for the files that will be coming in.
          If there is not an entry here then ALLFIX will configure it as
          a pass through area and process the files, send them on and
          delete the packet.
TAG path  Where the file(s) that contain(s) the AREA TAGS is(are) kept.
          If you recall that in the System Data | Address Manager |
          Uplink Manager screen we named the AREAS FILENAME and the
          AREAS FORMAT.  This is the directory that you'll keep those
          file in.  I keep all these files in a download directory so
          that my users can download them if they want.
TMP path  Any temp directory will do.  I have a tendency to use a
          differnt temp directory for any program that needs one.  That
          way there are no accidents.
Template  If you did the unzip right there should be a Template
          sub directory in your allfix in your Allfix directory. point
          this entry at it.  If you don't have a template subdirectory
          in you ALLFIX directory, make one and put all the *.APL files
          into it.


2. Now enter the System Data | Filenames screen

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Alias
Log file  C:\PCB\ALLFIX\LOG
Mgr Log
EchoToss
Unwanted
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Log File tells allfix where to create its log file.

3.  System Data | Origin lines is just that.  A set of origin lines that
    Allfix will put at the end of any Announcements or messages that it
    creates.  You can be a little creative here if you want.  no body
    cares.  Try to put some useful info here but don't wory about it.

4.  System Data | External programs

-----------------------------------------------------External Programs-
ARC    PKARC   -a                      ARCE
ARJ    ARJ     a                       ARJ     -e -c -y
LZH    LHA     a /tm                   LHA     e /cm
PAK
ZIP    PKZIP   -ao                     PKUNZIP -o -ed

SCAN

EAC
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Scan can be setup to use McAfee's SCAN

5. System Data | External programs
                  À-Options
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Swapping method        XMS|EMS|DISK
Redirect output        no
No virus Errorlevel    0
Files to scan
(EAC) virus errorlevel 0
(EAC) error errorlevel 0
---------------------------------------------------------------------

The first two lines are the only ones that I use.  The first tells
allfix to swap to XMS when swapping out to run an arciver if
it is available, if XMS isn't available use EMS and if neither are
available swap to disk.
The second line tells ALLFIX to write the output of the Archivers to the
screen.  Let's me see whats going on.

6. System Data | Volume Tracking deals with billing and I don't
   currently charge anyone for my hubbing services, so I've never messed
   with it.

T-T-T-Thats all, Folks
