  • Echos Not Being Exported Via Areafix

    From Khronos@VERT/CWSHACK to All on Sat Jun 6 12:03:32 2026
    Hi,
    I am trying to export some echos to FTN nodes and I am not sure why they are not being listed.
    I have a file with the list of echo areas to export in the c:\sbbs\data\mynet.na and in the node config for the keys section I have mynet.na specified as the echo keys.
    Is this all I need or is there more to this setup than I realize to get this working?

    When you say "export some echos" [sic], do you mean, export messages that are posted in (or imported into) your sub-boards? If so, then the message areas need to be listed in your area file (https://wiki.synchro.net/util:sbbsecho#area_file) ... unless you're using the AutoAddSubs feature.

    So more information is needed.
