<h3>Introduction</H3>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
Unlike many other bbs packages, for each node you need only one record. If you
|
|
|
|
|
have a relation with a node for one network with costsharing, and other
|
|
|
|
|
networks without costsharing you need two records for that node. For each node
|
|
|
|
|
you can setup the aka's, mail, files and session handshake. There are ten
|
|
|
|
|
screens for each node.
|
|
|

|

|
<H3>1. Edit general setup</H3>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
This screen has the general information for the node. The contact info fields are
|
|
|
|
|
just for private use, these fields are only used in this screen. The Outbox dir is for
|
|
|
|
|
files to sent to the node, all file you put in there will be sent to the remote if
|
|
|
|
|
user mbse has read/write access to the file. Only real files are allowed, not symlinks etc.

<H3>8. Directory session</H3>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
Setup in this screen is needed if you selected Inbound and or Outbound session
|
|
|
|
|
as Directory session. The node is then getting and bringing mail using the ftp
|
|
|
|
|
protocol and no normal mailer connects are being used anymore.
|
|
|
|
|
This may be a good solution for points, they only need a simple mailreader and a
|
|
|
|
|
tosser. The mail is transferred by the <b>mbfido</b> program, during the toss or
|
|
|
|
|
tic command after the normal inbound is processed <b>mbfido</b> will look for nodes inbound
|
|
|
|
|
directories to process. When mail is added to the outbound, mail for nodes with
|
|
|
|
|
directory sessions is not stored in the normal Binley Style Outbound but in the
|
|
|
|
|
session outbound directory.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
You need to setup a ftp account for this node and the best thing is to
|
|
|
|
|
set this up so that the other node is forced in a chroot environment, ie. make
|
|
|
|
|
it so that the node only sees his own directories and cannot leave that. The ftp
|
|
|
|
|
account needs to be a member of group bbs because mbfido needs access to the
|
|
|
|
|
files as well as the node. The nodes account needs also to be a member of group
|
|
|
|
|
bbsftp for the chroot environment.
|
|
|
|
|
The node needs umask 002 so that files that he puts
|
|
|
|
|
there will have group read/write access. During toss mbfido also stores the
|
|
|
|
|
files with group read/write access so that the node can remove the files when he
|
|
|
|
|
has fetched all files. Directory locking is supported and is compatible with
|
|
|
|
|
other mailers that support ftp. Here is a small sample of protftp.conf for use
|
|
|
|
|
with directory sessions:

Here are some examples to create an account, first create the extra group
|
|
|
|
|
bbsftp:
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
groupadd bbsftp
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
Then create accounts like this:
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
useradd -g bbs -G bbsftp -d /opt/mbse/var/bbsftp/irex -s /bin/bash -c "FTP Mail account" irex
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
Then give the node a password for the ftp login. Note that this account has a
|
|
|
|
|
shell, proftpd needs a valid shell to allow access. If the node tries to telnet
|
|
|
|
|
to your bbs he can't login with this account if you use <b>mblogin</b>, this is
|
|
|
|
|
because the node is not in the bbs userfile. If you system allows it, the node
|
|
|
|
|
can access the shell using rlogin or ssh.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
Now the items to setup for the directory sessions:
