    I wanted to, at first, to just move my data files over to a Linux flavor to run
    it. This didn't happen, I was getting errors.

    If I want to maintain my user list can I just copy over the User data file, or will there need to be more files than just that?

    And last one I think... What's the name of the onliner data file??

    Thanx

    from a quick peek mystic\data\users.dat is the only file you'll need for just users.

    I'm okay. I have the Linux version of a few weeks back and the BBS was naming the outbound mail packets line c:\mystic\whatever\????????.pkt (That was the packet name). I attempted to look under the hood to try and what I ended up doing was I ran both BBSes in parallel and I have been migrating things I know I can do.

    I think in a week or two I'll pull the plug on the Windows Version.

    I've seen that file and if that's all I need I'll move that over.

    Thanx
