I just came off of a stint of going back to Telegard/Allfix/FastEcho (my NUC
died) - one thing to keep in mind is Allfix only seems to support 8.3 filenames.

Some of the ANSI packs that fsxNet sends out now & then have modern long
filenames, the .TIC file would reference a filename like
"sup3rawes0mel33tansi.zip" and Allfix would say the file is missing because all
it sees is SUP3RA~1.ZIP.

Not sure how many long filenames pass through your system, but something to at
least consider.
