Here is how I have it set up on my system to do the weekly autohatch.  File 44 is the nodelist file area.  I think it is working. Give it a try and let me know if it works for you.

[AutoHatch]

       ; Files will be automatically hatched to connceted downlinks
       ; Each file must already exist in the file base.  The format
       ; file=<base ID or echotag> | filename | replaces filename (optional)

       file=44 | HOBBYNET.* |HOBBYNET.*
       file=4        | HOBBYNET.ZIP | HOBBYNET.ZIP
