This is definitely  NOT an advisable thing to do.  To start with, putting
files on the A  disk is not a good idea, because  then you won't remember
what is yours and  what is standard LISTSERV, and you  don't want to fill
in the A-disk  with files and then have LISTSERV  stop working because of
disk full.  Then storing files under  their real names opens  up security
holes, ESPECIALLY  IF DONE ON  THE A-DISK which  holds all the  execs and
modules ran by LISTSERV.
