I can only agree with Walt, what are we going to do
next year if this is not resolved. Are we going to
amend logs to give the correct zone as the checking
software sees it or leave as logged. Besides being
zapped by the ua9s's, I've also got sm5ufb in zone 15
three times. Pity I've got writelog now because under
wf1b I would have been into .air file and checked what
was sent.
