<H3>Description.</H3>
<P>
<strong>mbsetup</strong> is the setup program for MBSE BBS. It should be run
only by user <strong>mbse</strong>. If you run it by accident as root file
permissions will be wrong and your bbs may not function. For a detailed
description of all setup options see <A HREF="../setup/index.htm">MBSE BBS
Setup Guide</A>
<P>&nbsp;<P>
<H3>Environment.</H3>
<P>
In order to run <strong>mbsetup</strong> you must set the global variable
<strong>$MBSE_ROOT</strong>. This variable must point to the root directory
of the bbs structure. The main configuration file <strong>config.data</strong>
must be present in the ~/etc directory. If it is not present, ie you run
<strong>mbsetup</strong> for the first time, a default
<strong>config.data</strong> will be created. This will also happen with
several other databases.
