After a user logs in and assigns her/his password she/he can read messages
but not enter new ones. She/he can read non personal only.
The SYSOP logs in and uses the P command and then the V option to
validate the user. The user can be validated as a TWIT (immediate
log-off, as Message only (no CP/M access) or as CP/M user (Full
access).

ETC. NOTES:
The RBBS40 program can be compiled with BASCOM, and linked with L80. The
program uses a lot of the memory, so if you may have to use the ready
compiled one. The format for compiling is....
BASCOM d:RBBS40=d:RBBS40/X
then...
L80 d:RBBS40,d:RBBS40/N/E
Where d: is the drive name.
You must also have BRUN.COM on the same disk as the program.
...............................................................................
To re-enter the BBS from CP/M, type RBBS P. (or RBBS40 P..whatever you use as
a name for the program)
...............................................................................
Please, leave a message to SYSOP on North County BBS at ==>619-745-2206<==

program, PLEASE, leave me a message. I will help you get it going any way
I can..(well, almost)
