<h3>1.4. Edit Global Paths</H3>
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
<P>
<pre>
<strong>BBS Menus </strong>The path to the default menus
<strong>Txtfiles </strong>The path to the default ANSI and ASCII textfiles
<strong>Home dirs </strong>The path to the users home directories
<strong>Nodelists </strong>The path to the nodelist directory
<strong>Inbound </strong>The unprotected fidonet inbound
<strong>Prot inb. </strong>The (password) protected fidonet inbound
<strong>Outbound </strong>The outbound for the main aka
2002-08-04 11:41:39 +00:00
<strong>Out queue </strong>The outbound queue for temporary files
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
<strong>*.msgs </strong>A netmail directory from where *.msg mails are tossed
These are *.msg files can be created by several doors. (Not in use yet)
<strong>Bad TIC's </strong>Where bad TIC files are saved
<strong>TIC queue </strong>Where TIC files for downlinks are kept
<strong>Magic's </strong>Where the magic filerequests are kept
<strong>DOS path </strong>The DOS drive and path
<strong>Unix path </strong>The Translated DOS path in real
<strong>LeaveCase </strong>Leave outbound .flo filenames as is, No forces to uppercase
2002-02-10 20:57:58 +00:00

2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
</pre>
2002-01-07 22:11:33 +00:00
If you fill in the DOS path then the DOS path and Unix path are translated
to DOS paths in the flo files for outbound mail sessions. You only need this if
another mailer uses the outbound that doesn't understand Unix paths.
The DOS path is a fake, but it must match the other mailer.
Note that the TIC queue must be somewere in the Unix path, otherwise it is
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
impossible to create a DOS path from the path to the TIC files in that
directory. To set this up correctly is also important if you use other mailers
as well, for example binkd, or even a DOS binkly-style mailer running from
a network. All those mailer must "see" the same file attaches in the .flo
2002-01-07 22:11:33 +00:00
files.

</pre>
The minimum diskspace setting is to prevent that files get corrupted if your filesystem
is full. All drives are checked except CD-roms and floppies and the /boot directory if that
one is on a separate filesystem. Ext2, reiserfs, msdos and vfat partitions
are checked. The lowest free diskspace found counts. Default is 10 MB.

<h3>1.9. Next User Door.</h3>
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
<p>
This is a "message to nextuser" door I found in RapidBBS. It allows a user
to write a message to the next BBS user.
<pre>
<strong>Text file </strong>The textfile to display
<strong>Quote </strong>The prompt to show
</pre>
<p>
2001-11-08 20:56:30 +00:00

<h3>1.11. Time Bank Door.</h3>
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
<p>
This is the timebank door I found in RapidBBS. It allows a user to deposit
time or download kilobytes on his bank account so when he needs it for
big downloads he can use his savings for extra large downloads. Anyway,
I haven't figured this one out completly for myself, so the meaning of all
these settings are not well explained right now.

<h3>1.12. Sysop paging</h3>
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
<p>
For sysop chat we use a program that will connect to the users tty. This is
not a nice solution because it will not work over a network, but at least
it works.
<pre>
<strong>Ext. chat </strong>External chat program, not in use!
<strong>Chat device </strong>The device where the sysop is called (beeped)
<strong>Call script </strong>For future use
<strong>Page length </strong>The length of a page in seconds

<strong>Sysop area </strong>Message from user to Sysop area number
<strong>Ask reason </strong>Ask reason for chat, this will be logged
<strong>Use Extern </strong>Use external chat
<strong>Log Chat </strong>Log the chat conversation
<strong>Prompt Chk. </strong>Check at menu prompts for Sysop breaking in
<strong>Freeze Time </strong>Freeze users time during chat
<strong>Sunday..Saturday </strong>The times the Sysop is normal available
</pre><p>

<h3>1.13. Fileecho Processing.</h3>
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
<p>
A note, when you change the number of Systems or Groups, the databases affected
will be updated automatic.
<pre>
<strong>Keep days </strong>How long TIC files should be kept on hold
<strong>Hatch pwd </strong>The internal hatch password. Make this weird.
<strong>Drv space </strong>The minimal free space on your disk in kilobytes
<strong>Systems </strong>The maximum number of connected nodes

<strong>Plus all </strong>Allow filemgr +all command
<strong>Notify </strong>Allow filemgr notify=on/off command
2002-10-28 15:57:05 +00:00
<strong>Passwd </strong>Allow filemgr/areamgr passwd command
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
<strong>Message </strong>Allow filemgr message=on/off command
<strong>Tic on/off </strong>Allow filemgr tic=on/off command
<strong>Pause </strong>Allow filemgr pause/resume commands
</pre><p>
2002-10-28 15:57:05 +00:00
When you change one of the <b>Allow filemgr</b> settings, you also need to edit
the file /opt/mbse/english/macro/filemgr.help to reflect the new settings.
Default all these switches are set to Yes.
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00

2001-11-08 20:56:30 +00:00
<h3>1.14. Edit Fidonet mail and echomail processing.</h3>
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
<p>
Note that the first 2 mailboards must also exist in the normal mail areas if
you want to see what is in them. Here they are defined for quick access of the
tosser. For the Max. systems and groups see 1.12. If you use MBSE BBS together
with a DOS based BBS (using DOSEMU or mars netware emulator), you can set the
behaviour of the outbound to 4d. addressing instead of 5d. This option may
dissapear in the future.<br>
Another option is present, this is the <strong>pktdate</strong> option. This
is the full path and filename to an external program that can inspect and
correct the mail .pkt files. Originally I put this in to run pktname of Tobias
Ernst of 2:2476/418 to fix y2k problems in the incoming mail. At this time
most y2k fixes are build in, but in case you need it it's there. To make it
clear; the y2ktools written by Tobias are static compiled for Linux and they
should run on all Linux i386 versions. Until now, I still use pktdate because
it is necessary.<br>
<pre>
<strong>Badboard </strong>The path and filename of the bad messages
<strong>Dupeboard </strong>The path and filename of the duplicate messages
<strong>Pktdate </strong>Full path and filename of a .pkt preprocessor
<strong>Max pkts. </strong>Maximum Kb. of mail packets before a new one is created.
<strong>Max arcs. </strong>Maximum size in Kilobytes of an arcmail file
<strong>Keep days </strong>How many day should we keep ARCmail on hold
<strong>Echo dupes </strong>Maximum number of entries in the echomail dupe database
<strong>Reject old </strong>Reject echomail messages older then n days
<strong>Max msgs </strong>Default maximum number of messages in each area
<strong>Days old </strong>Default number of days old to keep messages
<strong>Max systems </strong>Maximum number of nodes to connect to echomail
<strong>Max groups </strong>Maximum number of echomail groups
<strong>4d address </strong>Use 4d. addressing (not needed you only use MBSE BBS)
<strong>Split at </strong>Gently split messages after n KBytes (12..60)
<strong>Force at </strong>Force split of messages after n KBytes (16..63)
2002-10-28 15:57:05 +00:00
<strong>Plus all </strong>Allow areamgr +all command
<strong>Notify </strong>Allow areamgr notify=on/off command
<strong>Passwd </strong>Allow areamgr/filemgr passwd command
<strong>Pause </strong>Allow areamgr pause/resume commands
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
</pre><p>
2002-10-28 15:57:05 +00:00
When you change one of the <b>Allow areamgr</b> settings, you also need to edit
the file /opt/mbse/english/macro/areamgr.help to reflect the new settings.
Default all these switches are set to Yes.
<P>
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
A note about the splitting of messages. Some tossers can't handle
messages greater than 16 KBytes, these tossers are rare these days. Most
tossers can handle messages of 32 KBytes. To set these values on the safe
side set "Split at" to 27 and "Force at" to 31. This means that a long
newfile report will be split after 27 KBytes when a new group of files
should start in the report. If it can't find that point because a large
number of files is in the group that is just being processed, the message
split will be forced right after the file that passes the 31 KBytes limit.
I use values of 1 KBytes below maximum for overhead such as SEEN-BY and
PATH lines. Values larger then 32 KBytes is not a good idea, recent tests
in May 1999 have shown that your messages will not reach all systems
2002-01-21 22:20:54 +00:00
if they are larger then 32 KBytes. Splitting is used for newfiles reports
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
and gated news articles to Fidonet.
<P>
2001-11-08 20:56:30 +00:00
<h3>1.15. Edit Internet mail and news processing.</h3>
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
<p>
Email and news is setup here. There are three possible configurations which you
2002-01-21 22:20:54 +00:00
can set with 1.15.11:
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
<ul>
<li><strong>No internet</strong>. If you don't have any connection to the internet
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
use this setting. Email will come from the default Fidonet UUCP gate and will be send out
via the UUCP gate. Users have email addresses like
2002-05-17 21:04:16 +00:00
<strong>user@f2802.n280.z2.fidonet.org</strong> Note, the username is their
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
Unix name when sending email.
<li><strong>No maildomain</strong>. If have internet but don't have your own
maildomain (most dialup systems) you should use this mode.
Email will be sent via your local SMTP port, then through your
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
own sendmail (or whatever you use) to your ISP.
As soon as you are connected to the internet
the mail will be sent to your ISP's mailer. In your sendmail you should
define the mailer of your ISP as Smarthost. Incoming email will still come
from the UUCP gate. Users have email addresses like
2002-05-17 21:04:16 +00:00
<strong>user@f2802.n280.z2.fidonet.org</strong> Incoming email comes from
the default Fidonet UUCP gate.
Note, the username is their Unix name.
If you have your own maildomain, don't use this option, use the next option:
<li><strong>Own maildomain</strong>. If you are permanent connected to the internet
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
either with a static or dynamic IP address use this option. Use this option
2002-01-07 22:11:33 +00:00
also if you have an UUCP domain and have a dialup UUCP connection. Also
2002-01-21 22:20:54 +00:00
you can use this for dialup if you have your own maildomain without UUCP,
you will then fetch the mail from a multidrop mailbox (POP or IMAP) and
send the mail using SMTP via the SMTP mailer of your provider.<br>
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
If you have a dynamic IP address you can still get a DNS name from for
example <A HREF="http://www.dynip.com">dynip.com</A>
Incoming email will come directly from the internet, but if someone sends
email via the UUCP gate it is also accepted. Users have email addresses like
<strong>user@yourbbs.domain.org</strong>. Note, the username is their
Unix name and yourbbs.domain.org must be an existing internet domain.
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
</ul>
A word of wisdom from my side, configuration of the internet, ppp, sendmail etc. is not discussed
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
here, see the HOWTO's and other documentation that exists at <A HREF="http://www.linuxdoc.org">
www.linuxdoc.org</A>, it's all there.
<pre>
<strong>POP3 node </strong>The POP3 node to use, should be localhost
<strong>SMTP node </strong>The SMTP node to use, should be localhost
<strong>NNTP node </strong>The NNTP node to use, should be localhost
<strong>NNTP m.r. </strong>If the NNTP server needs the Mode Reader command
<strong>NNTP user </strong>The username for the NNTP server if needed
<strong>NNTP pass </strong>The password for the NNTP server if needed
<strong>News dupes </strong>The number of entries for the news dupes database.
<strong>Email aka </strong>The Fidonet aka to use for the fidonet.org UUCP gate
<strong>UUCP aka </strong>The default Fidonet UUCP gate, 2:292/875@fidonet
<strong>Emailmode </strong>The email mode, discussed above
<strong>News mode </strong>Newsfeed mode, INN, rnews or UUCP.
2002-01-21 22:20:54 +00:00
<strong>Articles </strong>The default maximum newsarticles to fetch per group.
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00
<strong>Split at </strong>Gently split newfiles reports after n KBytes (12..60)
<strong>Force at </strong>Force split of newfiles reports after n KBytes (16..63)
<strong>Control ok </strong>Allow news control messages to be gated
<strong>No regate </strong>Don't regate already gated messages
In rnews mode the NNTP entries are replaced by:
<strong>Path rnews </strong>The full path and filename to the rnews binary.
In UUCP mode the NNTP entries are replaced by:
<strong>UUCP path </strong>The full path to the uucppublic directory.
<strong>UUCP node </strong>The UUCP nodename of your ISP.

Note that you can't disable FTS-0001 sessions as that is a mandatory session
protocol in Fidonet. There are 40 phonenumber translations present, this is for
countries with lots of telephone operators with all kind of prefixes for
carrier select functions. The setting of TCP/IP flags is important too, this
gives the information what this system will do. If you only enter IBN as TCP/IP
flags then the system will only call IBN nodes (binkp). The default is
XX,IBN,IFC,ITN::60177
2001-10-25 15:05:28 +00:00

A new program is <strong>mbftpd</strong>. This is a replacement for the normal
ftp server for Linux with special futures for MBSE BBS. This is not working
yet and is not included in the distribution. Setting it up is adviced.
<pre>

<h3>1.19. Edit HTML pages setup.</h3>
<p>
Here you setup the HTML pages that can be created with the <strong>
mbfile web</strong> command. These are HTML pages of your download
areas and indexes of all areas. If there are pictures in these areas
thumbnails are created if you have the <strong>convert</strong>
command available. The document root is the same as defined in your
web server. The link to ftp must be created from that directory to
your ftp base directory. To do that become root, cd to the document root
and type <strong>ln -s /var/spool/mbse/ftp files</strong> In this case the link
is called <strong>files</strong>. Note that all download areas are accesible,
there is no user authentication yet available.
