Thank you for trying WoodyWare's InterBBS Phase 2. The files in this
archive contain:
PHASE2.DOC - This Documentation
QUERY1.EXE - Search and Query Exec
MAIL.CFG - Mail configuration example
NODE.DAT - Sample uplink/downlinks
Briefly, here is what Phase 2 InterBBS does. If a user in Ufobase
enters a search word to search for on other BBSes Ufobase will create a *.UQU
file containing that search word, who entered it and your address. Query1.exe
will take these *.UQU files and create a netmail file attach for them; and
send them to your uplinks/downlinks as defined in Node.dat. If a match is
found on other systems, that system will send back a message to that user in
Ufobase in the form of an ascii record that was found in either ufo.dat or
fufo.dat.
ABOUT NODE.DAT
----------------
Your node.dat contains your uplink and downlink addresses (NOT YOUR OWN
ADDRESS). It must be in the following format:
ZONE
NET
NODE
POINT
etc.
For example for a BBS participating InterBBS:
1
3607
21
0
1
3607
20
0
REMEMBER THIS IS THE FILE FOR YOUR UP/DOWNLINKS FOR UFOBASE.
ABOUT MAIL.CFG
--------------
This config file is read by QUERY1.EXE which is the heart of
the networking part of Phase 2. It must be in the following format:
YOUR NAME
YOUR ZONE
YOUR NET
YOUR NODE
YOUR POINT
PATH TO YOUR UFOBASE DIRECTORY
PATH FOR OUTBOUND .MSG MESSAGES
PATH FOR INCOMING FILES AREA
For Example for a BBS participating in an InterBBS network:
Jerry Woody
1
3607
20
0
c:\SBBS\XTRN\UFOBASE
c:\fd\mail
c:\fd\file
QUERY1.EXE - Running Query1.exe is phase 2 interBBS. It will take any
search words entered by the user in UFOBASE and send a message to participating
BBSes as defined in your Node.dat. If a match is found Query1.exe on the
receiving end of the query message will send a record back to the originating
BBS where the user can then read and/or download any records found in the
search. This is good for BBSes that are limited in disk space and don't wish
to transmit large number of files over long distances. Query1.exe needs the
following files to operate: MAIL.CFG, NODE.DAT [Dos MOVE command is used].
RUNNING QUERY1.EXE
==================
You should run QUERY1.EXE during your nightly maintenance event.
QUERY1 will handle all outgoing query messages and incoming replies.
QUERY1 reads the following files: Mail.cfg, Node.dat
! Phase 2 InterBBS is included free of charge with UFOBASE
! Phase 2 InterBBS can be run also with phase 1 and phase 3 InterBBS
