Procomm Plus Connection Directory file? 2

Afternoon, was hoping to find some info here from other Procomm users. The maintenance provider I work for currently (remotely) supports 100s of older G3/Definity systems that run best over Procomm. Now we have techs who have been building their connection directory for years and have it pretty easy, pull up name, dial in and connect. Others like myself need to search out modem info and passwords. Not that taxing but it would be nice to have this info built right into Procomm.

My question is, does anyone know if Procomm saves all the directory entries in one file on the PC that I could use in place of my default (empty) directory? We did a similar operation for ASA (Site Administrator) and copied hundreds of entries over via Persist.dat and it worked beautifully. I am just having trouble finding out where Procomm stores all its user directory entries...

This would also be nice to have in-case someones PC takes a dump and they lose all their info.

Thanks in advance!
 
Probably version dependent but one was pw.dir Try searching for *.dir.

Procomm Plus 4.8 uses pw5.dir which by default installs to c:\Program Files\Symantec\Procomm Plus\pw5.dir
