REMOTLOG V 2.00 9D 1
The Program - REMOTLOG
I developed Remotlog a little after the announcement of RA was
made and I endeavored to switch from QuickBBS. There was
something missing, I could no longer use all my QBBS utilities.
After exhaustive efforts of trying to get the implementation of
my old program by its author, I decided that it was time to do
some coding.
Here we have the finished product. A full fledged RA log reporting
program, and now Bulletins and statistics generator.
(RA) Remote Access is the registered product of Continental Software.
At present this program will function with RA version 2.xx. Do
not attempt to use this program with any other software except RA
because it uses the file MESSAGES.RA, FILES.RA, CONFIG.RA,
USERS.BBS, and TIMELOG.BBS. If it cannot find these files the
program will abort in error.
The screens provided by this program are as the author thought
you the sysops would like to see them. If you feel the
information is too much or that there is not enough, or would
even like to see some of the information moved from one location
to another part of the page or a totaly different screen. Please
do not hesitate to let the author know.

COMMAND LINE OPTIONS
REMOTLOG [TEST] [/C] [/N##] [FILENAME.EXT]
[TEST] - REMOTLOG will generate only the Bulletin Screens and info.
[/C] - Will cause REMOTLOG to dump the config info to Log File.
[/N##] - Use the option to give remotlog a node number.
See: LogFile, LineInUse etc. If specified you may use
the *N anywhere in the configuration file and Remotlog
will substitute the ## given for the *N. You may use
it in directory name or even filenames. When used do
not specify a lineInUse variable or either the two
numbers match or you use the *N for the LINEINUSE as
well. This option may allow you to use only one
configuration file for your multi line system. Just
call REMOTLOG and tell it which line to process.
[FILENAME.EXT]
- Specify the config file name on the command line.
Any file name is valid.

Configuration of REMOTLOG
REGISTRATION INFORMATION
In this section you will find the BOARDNAME, SYSOPNAME, and REGISTKEY
options. These options are only one part of the registration system
to REMOTLOG. It also requires a key file to be present and properly
coded for a registered copy of the program to work as such. The key
file called REMOTLOG.KEY is required even if you are not a registered
user. When you are registered. You will be sent a new key file in
addition to the information supplied below so that you may have a
registered copy of REMOTLOG.
1. BOARDNAME Opa-Locka Tower
Boardname will be as you want it to appear on the screens
when registration is displayed. Maximum number of
characters that you may use are approximately 20 for the
board name, you can use more but only 20 will be displayed.
It is used to identify the name of the registered system.
2. SYSOPNAME Orland Carter
This should be quite apparent. However this is keyword lets
remotlog know who is the sysop that it is registered to. It
is advisable to use the same name that you have on the
system. REMOTLOG at times may use this name to post a
message to the sysop and not the one located in the
CONFIG.RA file. Maximum length of the sysop name is about
20 characters, you can have more however only 20 will be
displayed.
3. REGISTKEY 00000000000000000000
Registkey is where you place the key number that you will be
given to indicate that you have properly registered a copy of
this program. It has no preassigned length. Or numbers.
Whether you are registered or not you will be required to make
use of the BOARDNAME and SYSOPNAME options. If you change
registkey it will not make a difference to your unregistered
status.

REMOTLOG V 2.00 9D 5
CONFIGURATION - FILES SECTION
4. LOGFILE
This entry is required. It lets REMOTLOG know the name of
the BBS log file that it needs to process. You are also
able to give it a path to identify where the file is
located. This option will default to simply SYSTEM.LOG in
the current directory if no configuration file is specified.
LOGFILE SYSTEM.LOG or LOGFILE C:\LINE*N\LINE*N.LOG
5. LINEINUSE
This entry is not required if running single a line system,
However if you are running a Multi-Line system and would
like to delete or zip each nodes log file then this is
needed. LINEINUSE ##. Where ## is the line being processed
by this configuration file. ## range is 1..99
This option is not required if the [/N##] option is
specified on the command line.
LineInUse 1 or LineInUse *N
6. FDLOGFILE
This option is required if you want REMOTLOG to process the
file transfers, file requests, and other miscellaneous
information. The DEFAULT is NOFDLOGFILE, this option tells
REMOTLOG that you have no Front End Mailer logfile
compatible with the Frontdoor logging method. The other
option is FDLOGFILE [Path + Filename] of the Front End
Mailers log file, remember it must be compatible with
FrontDoor's log style.
FDLogFile C:\Fd\Fd.Log or FDLogFile C:\FD\FD*N\FD*N.LOG
7. OUTPUTFILE
This option is a required option. It lets REMOTLOG know
what [path + filename] the statistical output of the program
should be placed in. REMOTLOG will generate both the *.ANS
& *.ASC versions. This file name currently only applies to
the statistical information files that remotlog produces,
and not to the Bulletin information files. DEFAULT filename
is REMOTLOG. The bulletins will also use this directory to
store its output files default filename RLOG_???.Asc/Ans.
OUTPUTFILE C:\Ra\Txt\Remotlog
8. NOMULTILINE
This option is required. It tells the program whether or not you
wish the optional page of Multiline usage to be displayed. This
multiline usage is a breakdown of the number of calls per line in
a system with more than one node. This option will either report
it or not report it. In either case the statistics will still be
stored if the option is not selected. If at some future point in
time you wish to view this section just simply activate it by
specifying MULTILINE and it will let you know your multiline
usage up to that point. DEFAULT : NOMULTILINE
NoMultiLine

REMOTLOG V 2.00 9D 6
9. COMPACT
This option is required. It tells the program what type of log
file you are using. Wether FD/COMPACT [Front Door type] or
OPUS/EXPANDED. DEFAULT FD / COMPACT. This particular selection
applies ONLY to the BBS logfile. It is assumed that the Front
End Mailer of choice for this program logs in a Front Door
compatible format. There are actually four options for this
section FD, COMPACT both meaning the same thing and also OPUS,
EXPANDED both meaning the same as well. This is to smooth the
change that was made in RA 1.1x with the type of logfile
selection. Some sysops were getting confused.
COMPACT
[LOGFILE - DELETING/SHRINKING/ARCHIVING - SUBSECTION]
This portion of the logfile determines how REMOTLOG will handle the
size reduction of your logfiles. The choices are relatively simple.
DELETE the files after checking them. SHRINK the files by ## of days
after checking them. And also ZIP the logfiles into an archive after
checking them.
10. DELETELOG
This option is not required. It activates or Deactivates
the BBS logfile deleting option. The DEFAULT is that the
logfile will be deleted every 10 days. The two options are
DELETELOG ## (Where ## is the number of days that the
logfile should be kept,) and NODELETELOG this will tell the
system to not delete the logfile at all. This option is
also REQUIRED with the ZIPFILE option. It determines how
often the program will archive the logfile. Archive daily
or after ## number of days have elapsed.
DELETELOG 7
11. DELETEFDLOG
This option is not required. It activates or Deactivates
the Front End Mailer logfile deleting option ie (Front
Door)). The DEFAULT is the fd logfile will be deleted with
the RA log. The two options are DELETEFDLOG and
NODELETEFDLOG. When Zipping the File use DELETEFDLOG. This
option does not have a ## requirement by itself. It relies
on the ## number in the DELETELOG option for the BBS
logfile.
DELETEFDLOG

REMOTLOG V 2.00 9D 7
12. SHRINKFILE, ZIPFILE, or NOZIPFILE
This option is not required and will not function if the
DELETELOG option is not selected. It will determine whether
or not the Log file will actually be deleted, zipped, or
shrunk depending on a given date for storage.
The archiving method used by default is PKZIP, any
version located in your path. The file will be moved
while archived. The archive name will be in the format
RLMMDDYY.ZIP/ARC/ARJ/LZH/etc.
The option SHRINKFILE will take the ## of days
specified in the DELETELOG ## option and maintain on
those entries in the logfile for those number of days.
Meaning if today was the 21 APR 93 and DELETELOG 11 was
specified. The first log entry that would be left in
your log file would be from 10 APR 93 and onward.
The NOZIPFILE option says that you don't want to
archive the file and you don't want to shrink the
logfile and you don't want to archive the log file.
REMOTLOG will simply check the file make its notations
and leave it as is.
DEFAULT - NOZIPFILE, other otions are ZIPFILE and SHRINKFILE
SHRINKFILE
13. ARCHIVER
This option is also optional and defaults to PKZIP -m. It
controls which program is used to archive the log files.
The program should be able to remove the logfile after
archiving it. Default is ARCHIVER PKZIP -m
Option ARCHIVER

APPENDIX B.
Hints about operation of this program
There are several different things that you can do to get certain
results from this program.
For example if you want to change the begining date of the
report without erasing the remotlog.dat file. All you have
to do is to edit the .DAT file find the string that has the
date in it and make it a null string. When the program
starts up it will notice the date is missing and get the
date from the current system.log file.
When reading the log file the program will not attempt to
reposition pointers if the last item in the log is the
REMOTLOG tag. Of course the current session will be
appended to the end of the logfile.
By deleting the notations/entries that REMOTLOG makes in the
log file you can force it to re-process portions of or the
entire log file.
The *##^^^^^^^^^ ___ option will accept hard spaces in the
search for portion. It is not restricted.
Any bug reports, comments, or requested addition, deletions etc. may
be sent to Node 1:135/72. or the addresses listed in the registration
section. I can also be reached in the RA_UTIL echo. Before you send
me a bug report if you are not registered, and if you are. Insure
that you RTM and read the configuration file comments before screaming
bug report. If you send me netmail bug reports, and are not
registered do not wait for a netmail reply. It cost me money to send
a net message back to you and you couldn't find it to register. All
bug reports must contain a copy of Errors.log and a summarized copy of
your configuration file. Meaning leave out all the lines with a ";"
in them. Explain the bug in full detail. If not I will simply ignore
it or send you a message indicating that I will take no action until
you can meet the bug reporting requirements.
Credits
The author, Orland K. Carter, would like to thank anyone who served as a
beta testers of this program that put up with the constant updates to the
one program and major overhaul of their configuration and data files.
