It (sorta) does, yes!

After doing the "scanner -i", that's what the mminfo reports, altho I 
can't see those clients in the client list.

Should I presume that those are my old client IDs? If so, do I need to 
delete "admnlts003", and remake it, using that client ID? *OR* can I just 
enter that client ID, directly into the existing "admnlts003" client, 
overwriting it's current client ID?
