- Setting up the BBS:
- -------------------
-
- THIS BBS ONLY WORKS ON FALCON COMPUTERS YET! IF THE INTEREST IS BIG ENOUGH,
- THERE WILL ALSO BE A TT AND MAYBE EVEN ST VERSION!
- Real-time ANSI-display is only possible on VGA monitors! Just start
- \PREHELL\ANSIEDIT\ANSIDRIV.PRG to install the driver...
-
- Just copy \PREHELL to any driver of your harddisk. There doesn't need to be
- much space left. A small BBS with up to 50 users generally won't need
- more than 10-20 megabytes for the BBS-data, user and mail-files.
-
- For a good working of the BBS you should have HSMODEM installed and setup
- RS232 to your wishes! (Use a standard CPX for that)
-
- For file-transfers, you have to get a Zmodem module! (GSZRZ)
- Other possibilities will be included in future versions...
-
- There is already one user set up: Name: Sysop Password: Sysop
- Change this password as soon as possible...
-
- These are the files in \PREHELL\ which can be changed:
- ---------------------------------------------------------------
-
- F_AREAS.BBS ->the file-areas
- M_AREAS.BBS ->the message-areas
- MENUS.BBS ->the BBS-menus
- LOGIN.SCR ->BBS script executed at login
- CARRLOST.SCR ->BBS script executed at unexpected hangups
-
- Help for these files can be found in AREAS.HLP, MENUS.HLP and SCRIPTS.HLP
-
-
- These are files in the language-directories which can be changed:
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
-
- F_AREAS.BBS, M_AREAS, MENUS.BBS -> see files in \PREHELL\
-
- NEW_USER.BBS ->This is the text which will be mailed to each new user!
- TEXTS.BBS ->Language specific communication sentences.
-
-
- Well, there isn't much more to say. Just look at the specific files, it
- should be quite self-explanatory...
