cd C:\IN


That should do it. If you've forgotten and made your connection use

F10
cd C:\IN
F10
session 1 (or whichever session it is you want to return to).

rather than close the connection just to change directories.


Don't forget you won't be able to receive news or mail until you 
return to C:\OASIS because nos won't be able to lock files.

I hope this works for you.

Best wishes
