Uhm, the last version you sent me V036, though I did have trouble
extracting it from the archive, but seemed to get a working version out
of it.

Tom any chance of you in future posting it to me at work:-

remotenb at hinwick.demon.co.uk

Incidentally the user remotenb is the user on the Fbsd machine that
users log onto via AUN to run !RemoteNB from aswell  as !NewsDir

Ah, should I have got rid of !NewsDir?
