The <MODTIME> tag is missing at least in this rc file.
I wonder where to put it and if there is no </MODTIME>
tag that needs to be put later.

The end tag is not required since <MODTIME> is an empty tag.  However,
the existence of </MODTIME> does not hurt anything.

Uh oh!  You stated that you were using v2.5.13 of MHonArc.  If you
are using a older version of MHonArc now, that could cause problems.
Since it is still a v2.5.x version, you may be okay.  See
<http://www.mhonarc.org/MHonArc/doc/relnotes.html#down> for isssue
related to downgrading.

Debian has later packages of MHonArc you can install.  Or, just
install from the tar.gz bundle directly.

I am not yet a Linux pro - just forced to learn on the run.
This why I failed in the past with older version of linux
to convert the text of posts in the archive from fixed (<pre>)
to proportional.

BTW, I check your .mhonarc.db file for your archive, and the
MODTIME resource is set to 0.  That is, it is disabled.

I wonder if entering the <MODTIME> to the .rc file will change
the .mhonarc.db file automaticly or I will have to do the 
archive from the beginning.

You may want to check out
<http://www.mhonarc.org/MHonArc/doc/faq/security.html#mhonarc_db> if
you do not want others to do what I just did (but with your archives,
it appears to not matter).

We were not subject to hacking yet and prefer not to chalenge
hackers with security.

If forced to - I will learn security too.
