NameChng door by boB Gage
KNOWN QUIRKS, WIERDITIES, AND ANOMYLES:
- Having a name that appears both in the alias and real name columns of the
alias file can (and usually will) have detrimental effects when that user
tries to use NameChng. (ie endless loop into la-la land...Ctrl-Alt-Del)
- Use on a RAMdrive virtually GUARANTEES eventual loss of a flag file (ie
*.SNC or *.ALI) and subsequent USERS corruption. Manual recovery is the
ONLY way to fix it unless a backup has just been made. DO NOT SET UP
NAMECHNG ON A RAM DISK!!!!
- At this time, using the VERIFY sysop function verifies an alias with NO
conference locking at all, ie the user can access any and all conferences
they can normally get to while in the alias. The ONLY way to limit the
alias is to edit the alias file instead of using the VERIFY command.
Conference locks on the VERIFY command line may be forthcoming.
