Feathernet BBS Version 3.9 UPGRADE Instructions
-----------------------------------------------
1. Follow the directions in 'readme.now' AFTER you have completed the
instructions which follow for upgrading to version 3.8
Feathernet BBS Version 3.8 UPGRADE Instructions
-----------------------------------------------
1. Replace the following files:
fnet.exe
fnchk.exe
fncfg.exe
fnfiler.exe
fnetsm.exe
fnecho.exe
2. Backup your OLD chat.def file (locatyed in the MAIN BBS directory) before
proceding. Use the dos command: "copy chat.def chat2.def"
Run the 'DEFAULT.EXE' file ONCE from the MAIN BBS directory. This modifies
the 'chat.def' file for version 3.8.
This new code allows you to either search the actual dos directories
specified in the 'dirdata' file or the DIRxx files (file description
files).
Make a backup of the OLD dirdata file before you convert the file to
the new format. Noiw make a backup of the NEW 'dirdata' file for use
if you run fncfg.exe.
Now run 'dcvt.exe' from each node directory. (Where the 'dirdata'
file resides). This will convert your dirdata file to the
new format required by version 3.38.
That is all that is needed for conversion from version 3.37 to
version 3.38 or newer.
Feathernet BBS Version 3.7 UPGRADE Instructions
-----------------------------------------------
1. Replace the following files:
fnet.exe
fnchk.exe
fncfg.exe
fnfiler.exe
fnetsm.exe
fnecho.exe
Feathernet BBS Version 3.6 UPGRADE Instructions
-----------------------------------------------
1. This is a Maintenance release to change the version number due to
several enhancements and bug fixes to version 3.5.
2. Replace these .exe files to update your system:
fnet.exe
fnchk.exe
fncfg.exe
fnfiler.exe
fnetsm.exe
3. This completes the upgrade to version 3.6
Feathernet BBS Version 3.5 UPGRADE Instructions
-----------------------------------------------
1. Modify the 'sr.bat' file as follows:
a. Insert a line immediately after the line reading "fnet %1 %2"
which says "if errorlevel 2 goto end3".
There should still be a line after the one just inserted which reads
"if errorlevel 2 goto end2".
An excerpt from a changed 'sr.bat' file reads:
fnet %1 %2
if errorlevel 2 goto end3
if errorlevel 1 goto end2
b. Now add one line to the end of the 'sr.bat' file which reads:
:end3
2. Ensure you replace the OLD 'fnettext' file with the one in the 'fn35_1'
archive file.
3. Replace the old 'fnet.scr' file with the one in the 'fn35_1' archive.
4. Replace the old 'fncfg.hlp' file with the one in the 'fn35_1' archive.
5 Replace the old 'fncfg.ndx' file with the one in the 'fn35_1' archive.
6. This completes the upgrade to Feathernet version 3.5 dated 02-21-90.
