- <> Andy's Reference Mod <>
-
-
- By: Andy Golden
- Level of Difficulty: EXTREMLY easy.
- Tested with: WWIV 4.20
- Support: The Jungle BBS (508) 435-7884
- Files Effected: Newuser.c, Fcns.h
-
- *Disclaimer*
- No matter what the hell happens when you install this mod IM NOT RESPONSIBLE
- FOR!!!
- *Get it????*
-
- Ok welp, One say I had a new user who was from the area, but his phone number
- wasn't listed so I couldn't use the phone book to validate him. Good thing
- for me, he said in feedback he called another local BBS and gave the name. So
- I just gave the BBS he mentioned a ring. And asked the sysop if this user
- exsisted. Well, he didnt.. So he was deleted. And I thought "What if he didnt
- mention another BBS, I probably would have validated this fake account." So
- I wrote this mod. What it does is when you have a newuser it asks for another,
- preferably local, BBS the user calls and prints out his answer to the Sysop
- Log. Simple huh? Can't Hurt...
-
- Here's the mod:
-
- Step one:
- ---------
-
- BACK UP SOURCE!! This mod can't screw you big time if you don't, but it's still
- a good idea.
-
- Step two:
- ---------
-
- Load up NEWUSER.C and shove this void before "void input_realname()".
-
- void input_reference()
- {
- char s[81];
-
- pl("1Name another BBS you call, preferably local");
- outstr("1: 7");
- input(s,40);
- sysoplog("*** BBS REFERENCE: ");
- sysoplog(s);
-
- }
-
-
- Step three:
- -----------
-
- Insert a line in following section:
-
- input_age(&thisuser);
- input_comptype();
- input_reference(); /* INSERT ME!! */
- nl();
- npr("Random password: %s\r\n",thisuser.pw);
- nl();
-
-
- Step four:
- ----------
-
- Close up NEWUSER.C and load up FCNS.H
- Add:
-
- void input_reference();
-
- in the NEWUSER.C section of FCNS.H
-
-
- Step Five:
- ----------
-
- Close up FCNS.H and recompile.
-
-
