- # Format:
- # --------------------------------------------------------------
- # <username> <password> <root_dir> <permissions>
- # --------------------------------------------------------------
- #
- # N.B. EXACTLY ONE SPACE between fields.
- #
- # <password> is any string of characters, without spaces/tabs.
- # An asterisk in this field indicates that any password will
- # be accepted; by convention, users then give their callsign
- # as the password.
- #
- # <root_dir> is the highest directory level which the user is
- # permitted to access. This must be expressed as an absolute
- # full pathname from the DOS root, but without drive letter.
- #
- # N.B. In the examples included in NOSview, the DOS root is
- # N: (because of the SUBST N: command in NOSENV.BAT).
- # This removes the risk of accidentally allowing users
- # to access directories outside the scope of NOS.
- #
- # <permissions>
- # ftp and telnet
- # --------------
- # 1 read file
- # 2 create new file
- # 4 write/delete file
- #
- # telnet only
- # -----------
- # 8 AX.25 Gateway access
- # 16 Telnet Gateway access
- # 32 NET/ROM Access
- # 64 Remote control
- # 128 Disallow access
- #
- # ppp only
- # --------
- # 256 PPP connection
- # 512 peer ID/password lookup
- #
- # Be very careful about giving access to sensitive directories.
- # Although you can theoretically prevent unauthorised access
- # through password protection, remember that anyone can monitor
- # the channel and discover user passwords as they are being
- # transmitted.
- #
- # If a user connects to the BBS using vanilla AX.25 (not telnet),
- # access is granted without having to provide a login username or
- # password. In this case the user name is assumed to be the
- # AX.25 callsign (without SSID), and the user has no directory
- # access privileges.
- #
- # Therefore if you wish to prevent vanilla AX.25 users gaining
- # directory access, user names should be 7 or 8 characters long.
-
- # Miscellaneous accounts requiring no password:
- anonymous * /public 1
- anon * /public 1
- bbs * /public 1
- guest * /public 1
- univperm * /public 1
-
- # Known and trusted ... but make sure your own login and password are unusual.
