Howdy Y'all,
(C'mon, fess up, y'all spect us ta talk like thet, doan `cha?) <G>

Besides announcing the files that allfix imports into your directories,
you can also have it announce any files that you're users upload to your
board.

This is pretty simple.  Open ASETUP | BBS new file dirs and you'll
see

 1/1   BBS new file directories 
                                                                      
 File area                                                            
 Desc                                                                 
 Group                                                                
                                                                      
;

Edit it to your boards version of the following:

 1/1  BBS new file directories 
                                                                      
 File area Pub upload dir : C:\PCB\UPLOAD\                            
 Desc      New uploads to Deacon Blue's                               
 Group     5   - Misc                                                 
                                                                      
;

File area is the directory that you have set up to recieve your callers
          uploads.  You can put all your directories here but if you do
          then each time a file is moved from one directory to another
          is is announced as NEW.  Any way, I only have on upload
          directory so I only have one entry in this area.  If you have
          different conference specific or group specific upload
          directories then put them here also.

Desc      is the area description that will be put into the new file
          announcement.

Group     is the group that this belongs to.  If you send out netmail
          announcements then a board must be authorized for this group
          before he'll get the announcement.  (Set the authorization
          groups in the node manager)

That should take care of it.  Here's acouple of new file announcements
that recently went out from Deacon Blue's in a local echo.  The first is
from a caller upload and the second is an abreviated list of files that 
came in from the LORD FDN.
