LogOn/LogOff v1.00 (c)1994 by Doug Kalman. All Rights Reserved.
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Multi-Line user annoucement utility for RemoteAccess v2.01.
Overview
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
LogOn/LogOff is a multi line user annoucement utility for RemoteAccess
v2.01. It sends a one line annoucement to other nodes when a user
logs on and off your system.
Installation
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
LogOn/LogOff can be installed two different ways.
The first method (preferred):
1) Unzip the contents of this archive into your RA system directory.
2) Fire up RACONFIG, select OPTIONS then SYSTEM. Set TEXT SHELLS to YES.
If you have more than one CONFIG.RA repeat this step for as many nodes
as have a seperate file.
3) Using your favorite textfile editor (i.e. TheDraw) edit each WELCOME
and GOODBYE file to include:
^XF:\RA\LOGON.EXE H: 4| (for WELCOME.ASC/ANS/AVT/RIP)
^XF:\RA\LOGOFF.EXE H: 4| (for GOODBYE.ASC/ANS/AVT/RIP)
The ^X is the RA control code for running a program from a textfile.
The F:\RA\LOGON.EXE or F:\RA\LOGOFF.EXE is the path and filename of
the program.
The H: is the path to your semaphor directory (NO TRAILING BACKSLASH).
The 4 is the number of nodes you have.
The | is the RA control code that terminates a textfile command line.
Example (for a GOODBYE textfile):
C:\RA\LOGOFF.EXE E:\SEMAPHOR 10|
This would indicate that your RA system directory is C:\RA, that your
Semaphor directory was E:\SEMAPHOR and you were running 10 lines.
The second method:
You can also execute LogOn/LogOff from an auto-executing type-7 shell.
If you don't display alot of textfiles before your TOP menu, you may
wish to use this method. The command line is identical minus the ^X
and | control codes.
Disclaimer
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
LogOn/LogOff was tested, and worked flawlessly on my system (Running 4
nodes under RA-Pro 2.01 and Desqview). But it comes with NO Warranty.
Use it at your own risk!
In no event shall Doug Kalman or Coming Attractions! BBS be liable for
any damages caused by LogOn/LogOff. The software is supplied as-is.
