Yep.

Q1: How do I get back to "Connected"? "cfs wr" didn't seem to change 
anything.

Q2: How do I repair the conflict? beginrepair prompts "Pathname of 
object in conflict?", which I do not know.

Q3: Do I need to use "cfs fl" in some controlled fashion to copy the 
maildir's to this box? And throttle my tar extract, somehow?
