    Getting a lot of no such file or directory error when importing messages from dovenet. I looked at the data/subs directory and it looks like there all there. Any ideas?

    I'm assuming that "info" value was actually "smb_freemsgdat", not "smb_freemsgdata" (did you hand-type this?). Anyway, it appears your dove-syncprog sub has some corruption. Running "chksmb /sbbs/data/subs/dove-syncprog" should confirm if that is the case. Then you should be able to use fixsmb or (if necessary) smbutil to repair it.
