- Subject: EXPORT files for all server operations
-
- See IMPORT at the end of this file
-
- Although the BBreqfil/dir servers will only recognize addresses to
- REQFIL@Yourcall or REQFIL@Blank and REQDIR@Yourcall and REQDIR@Blank
- you may export any addresses you wish to either one of two files prior
- to running the servers. These EXPORT files are always appended so that
- any work that might be needed will be kept in them until you wish to
- run the servers.
-
- The EXPORT file that BBreqfil.exe will look for is REQFIL.IN and must
- exist before the server will function.
-
- The EXPORT file that BBreqdir.exe will look for is REQDIR.IN and must
- exist before the server will function.
-
- If you wish to have other addresses serviced by the servers you should
- use wakeup.bb to create the proper EXPORT files.
-
- The proper format is: EXPORTK REQFIL.IN > {Address@Whatever} for BBreqfil
-
- The proper format is: EXPORTK REQDIR.IN > {Address@Whatever} for BBreqdir
-
- You may use wildcards and any of the parameters in the REBBS program to
- get what you want into {Address@Whatever} see Search.doc & Wildcard.doc
- in the REBBS documentation, be creative and if you need to make several
- EXPORT commands to get all you need that is OK, Comments on how to
- search for @Blank etc. are in Roy's docs.
-
- This should not be needed unless you are changing from another server
- such as BBserv and users are still used to sending requests that way.
-
- Both BBreqfil and BBreqdir will also work with any Filename.ext you wish
- by using a suffix for the Filename you wish when calling up the program
- as in BBreqfil.exe / BBSERV ( BBreqfil will look for BBSERV.IN when running
- and produce BBSERV.OUT when finished.
-
- ==============================================================================
- IMPORT
- If you use BBsplit.cfg and specify any messages to be held the IMPORT file
- will be produced as the MESSAGESIZE.OUT as in 1500.OUT
-
- These will have to be imported using Wakeup.bb at whatever times you wish.
-
- All messages of the same size will be stored together
