From my windows maximus setup I have both numbers and tag names in use taken
directly from my husky htick file processor where the most of the directories
have the tag names and some others to handle by dos directory names.
I could then try to do the filearea.ctl file by a perl script as I using some
perl doing for mail stat and other things on linux.

I could too take the old windows fileareactl file and change it to match to
linux and the change of the oldfiles and newfiles doing. The can be made it
like first new files and then the old one there not is been updated in new
files incoming, where new files of ex. avdat named avdat1 and the old area as
avdat2 etc.

 BJ> Sounds reasonable....
Some the directories can be empty as if my htick processor will it right job
with replace of files both for incoming tics and my own hatched files with tic
files. Then if maximus by telnet has been activated and a user has done some
uploading of file there could be a script there by a function check the file
and after some days more (like fast date setup ) move the file + description if
any to check move directory for to be put to the right place for the file and
in away maybe send email or by other way notice me about the file.

      Take care
