- INTRODUCTION
- TriCheckInactiveUsers is a TriBBS 4.x utility designed to check the USERS.DAT
- file for users who have not logged onto your board in a specified number of
- days. If inactive users are found, TriCIU will generate a user-specific logon
- screen for the Sysop giving the names of those inactive users. If configured
- to do so, TriCIU will also automatically flag for deletion any inactive users
- that are found.
-
- INSTALLATION
- 1) Copy TRICIU.EXE and TRICIU.CFG into any directory of your choice. The
- .CFG file must remain in the same directory as the .EXE file.
-
- 2) Using a text editor, edit the TRINUG.CFG file to include the required
- information as shown in the example below:
-
- Node Carolina <-- The name of your BBS
- Doug Henderson <-- Sysop's first and last name
- C:\TRIBBS\MWORK\ <-- The path to your USERS.DAT file
- C:\TRIBBS\DISPLAY\ <-- The path to Sysop logon screen
- @MOREOFF@ @BREAKOFF@ @CLS@ <-- header for Sysop logon screen
- @PAUSE@ <-- footer for Sysop screen
- 60 <-- number of days to check for inactivity
- Y <-- Flag for deletion? Y or N
- 1 <-- Sysop's user number. Should be "1", but
- you never know!
-
- IMPORTANT!! YOU MUST INCLUDE THE TRAILING BACKSLASHES AFTER THE PATHNAMES
- OR THE SOFTWARE WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY!!
-
- 3) TriCheckInactiveUsers should be executed as a daily event. If you have any
- questions about how to set up an event , you need to check your TriBBS
- manual or the manual for your frontdoor program, if you run one (i.e.
- FrontDoor, D'Bridge, BinkleyTerm, InterMail). In the batch file for the
- event, you need to place the following command:
-
- TRICIU
-
- That's all there is to it. If you have any questions, complaints, or
- suggestions, please feel free to call Node Carolina at (704) 663-7602 or
- leave me, Doug Henderson, a message in the TriBBS Support or TriBBS 3rd
- Party message conferences of the WME mail message network. I can also be
- reached via Fidonet at 1:379/14.
