    Hi everyone, we will be camping in Sardinia from the first week of August to the first week of September and I will not have access to the BBS, so I am taking it down for the 4 weeks. How can I tell FSX-Net that it does not need to provide packages for this time?

    Many thanks and greetings from Germany

    It looks like Hub 2 uses Mystic, which I don't believe has a %PAUSE function in its Areafix.

    You could either ask Todd/Solaris to make you inactive for the month or send a netmail to Areafix with %-ALL in it to unsubscribe from all echos & then re-subscrive with %ALL when you get back (and optionally %RESCAN to see what you missed while away).
