v1.0.6.8 20-Jul-2016 - Andrew Leary
1. Fixed the SETUP.sh script to handle installing on fresh
installations of Ubuntu 12.04+. These versions do not install
an admin group, which MBSE uses to enable the mbse user to run
sudo. SETUP.sh will now add the admin group if it doesn't
exist, to prevent useradd failing to create the mbse user.
This change only affects first time installations on Ubuntu
12.04 or later.
v1.0.6.7 28-Jun-2016 - Andrew Leary
1. Added the ability to disable cross-zone SEEN-BY
stripping to mbfido. This is currently a global toggle,
defaulting to strip SEEN-BYs when crossing zone boundaries.
In situations where this behavior is not desired, toggle the
SBstrip option to "No" in mbsetup 1.11.20. If there is
enough call for it, I will consider making this configurable
on a group and/or area basis.
v1.0.6.6 23-Jun-2016 - Andrew Leary
1. Several spelling and grammar corrections in mbsebbs.c,
chat.c, offline.c, and newuser.c. Thanks to Sean Dennis for
the updates.
v1.0.6.5 12-Feb-2016 - Robert James Clay
1. Edit README file to better reflect current practice.
v1.0.6.4 22-Nov-2015 - Andrew Leary
1. Updated mbfido's .tic file support to use "Lfile" instead
of "Fullname" when creating .tic files. This is to increase
compatibility with HTick, and comply with the recently
released FSP-1039. Both keywords will be accepted in
incoming .tic files.
v1.0.6.3 05-Nov-2015 - Robert James Clay
1. Update the Dev Team information in the AUTHORS file.
03-Nov-2015 - Vincent Coen
1. Add mbse-1.odt to the docs directory.
v1.0.6.2 17-Oct-2015 - Vincent Coen
1. Amended mbmon.c and mbsetup.c to reflect new hosting
for the sources etc at www.sourceforge.net.
2. Other very minor cosmetics.
3. Add mbse-1.pdf to a new docs directory.
v1.0.6.1 07-Aug-2015 - Andrew Leary
1. Removed the Precise field from Via lines in netmail, as
it was not actually accurate anyway. Forwarded netmails had
this field set to .00, and locally generated netmails had this
field set to .01. This field is optional in FTS-4009, but
if used is supposed to indicate fractions of a second.
v1.0.6 03-Aug-2015 - Andrew Leary
1. Added support for specifying a literal IPv6 address
encased in square brackets for a node. Previously, IPv6 was
only supported for nodes having an AAAA record for their
hostname in DNS.
2. The BBS now allows alphanumeric and punctuation
characters in user passwords. Previously, only alphanumeric
characters were permitted.
3. Several minor grammar and punctuation corrections.
v1.0.5 02-Nov-2014 - Andrew Leary (Never officially released)
1. Adjusted mbcico's .flo file logic to support a space
character as the first character of the .flo file line.
This character indicates that the file named in the
remainder of the line should be sent to the remote system.
This is needed to allow transmitting filenames that start
with .flo file reserved characters such as ^, #, -, or @.
2. Worked on increasing reliability of Binkp NR mode. It
is strongly recommended that CRC mode be enabled for any
node which NR mode is enabled for.
v1.0.4 03-Sep-2014 - Andrew Leary
1. Reverted Vince Coen's packaging changes until an upgrade
script can be written and tested.
2. Added Binkp CRC support (FSP-1020) to mbcico.
3. Changed the No Binkp/1.1 setting for nodes to be
effective on outbound calls only. It was causing issues
with other mailers (including BinkD) on inbound calls,
because mbcico was reporting binkp/1.1 in the VER string and
then downshifting to binkp/1.0.
4. Updated the Internet Rex binkp/1.1 bug workaround to
reflect that versions 2.31 and 2.67 are also affected.
v1.0.3 13-Jun-2014 - Vincent Coen
1. Changed unix/mbuseradd.c
Added extra arg to useradd -p 12345 to avoid a locked
record under Mageia v4 that prevents the password
adding a record due to a file busy may be: Lets see.
No it is not so reverted back.
2. Still looking for cause of bug.
v1.0.2 14-Mar-2014 - Vincent Coen
Changed packaging to use /home/mbse instead of /opt/mbse
to suit users with a seperate / and a /home partitions.
IT DOES NOT CHANGE THE RESULTS FOR AN EXISTING INSTALL
WHERE mbse & bbs users are set up to use /opt/mbse.
YOU WILL HAVE TO DO THIS MANUALLY.
The supplied INSTALL script has been changed.
To do this you will need to change:
1. Users mbse, bbs and all bbs users to reflect the change
of home directory from /opt/mbse to /home/mbse using your
distro's graphic system editing tool for users or if not
available use usermod via sudo etc:
usermod -m -d /home/mbse mbse
usermod -m -d /home/mbse/home/bbs bbs
usermod -m -d /home/mbse/home/user-name bbs user-name
Note that the '-m' option in usermod option is to move the
contents from the existing to the new location.
You can see the list of bbs users by running:
ls -la /opt/mbse/home
2. Using your favourite editor Change
/etc/services and
/etc/xinetd.d/mbsebbs
Replacing all instances of /opt/mbse with
/home/mbse
3. Now do the same with http and ftp config files in
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and
/etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf (or whatever ftp & web service
you use.
4. Having installed/upgraded the mbse system you must
reboot the system or stop and start mbse, xinetd, ftp,
httpd etc
services. It is easier just shuting down and starting
the system.
5. As su run cp -ap /opt/mbse /home
6. If not already done so, build the system using the usual
./configure & make and now run make install as su or if
not available do, sudo bash then su then make install
7. Change all crontab processes that deal with mbse both as
user mbse and root to reflect new directory using:
crontab -l to see what is current and then as crontab -e
to edit.
8. After rebooting the system check everything is working
Then I would suggest renaming /opt/mbse say from /opt/mbse
/opt/old-mbse and leave it a few days before deleting when
you are SURE that all is working.
9. Now when you change the /boot partition or install a new
version of your distro you can continue to use your /home
as is but do not forget to recreate the crontab, xinetd,
rc.d/init.d/mbseb etc as needed by using cp -vp from the
old partition to the new or failing that create a modified
version of SETUP.sh as needed and run it.
