ZONE is a database provided by Ed Gassman, N8HTT. Review it by viewing
the files ZONE.LIS and ZONE.FUL. ZONE.LIS will be displayed to the
user who types SH/ZONE <ENTER>. ZONE.FUL is the database itself.
ZONE.AOK is furnished to limit updates (SYSOP should change if desired).
To implement SH/ZONE, first load the two files into your PACKCLUS directory.
Then, make the index file by executing the MAKEIDX utility as follows:
MAKEIDX ZONE.FUL 3000 <ENTER>
Next, add the following line to your SYSOP.DAT file:
SET/COMMAND ZONE ZONE.LIS ZONE.FUL/ZONE.IDX * * *
And, if you didn't shut down the node to install the database, type in the
above line as a SYSOP command.
Other nodes may access the database on your node by adding a line to their
SYSOP.DAT and/or typing in the line as a command. If the callsign of the
node where the database is installed is KJ9D, then the other nodes would
execute the following command (in SYSOP.DAT and/or as a direct command):
SET/COMMAND ZONE * * * * * KJ9D
