Hmm, a new problem - am told I can't connect to Sierra because my version's
out of date, but there are no updates to be done...it's a known problem
according to the Sierra boards, but it's darn frustrating!

If you have the 1.3 version installed, double-check to see if any of the
long filename have been truncated to 8.3 format. If you're unsure,
visit the NEWS section of www.papy.com and download a small batch file
which will do the renaming for you.

It must be something else Eric, because I connected OK AFTER
installing the patch, then yesterday I got the "out of date but no
updates available" message.
Now today it's working again.
Weird.

Cheers, Alan.

Thanks, Eric, but it wasn't that. As mentioned in your forum it was a slight
configuration error that's now been fixed.
