- Part I .. Product Overview
- --------------------------
-
- Thank you for trying out User Statistics! User Statistics is a BBS utility that
- will enforce a SysOp defined FILE and BYTE ratio on users. If a user fails
- his/her file or byte ratio (predefined by the SysOp), their download bytes are
- reduced to 0 until they fix their ratio. This allows SysOps to keep users from
- raping their systems in a way that will allow them to fix their ratio and
- regain their ability to download all in the SAME CALL.
-
- Part II ... Installation
- ------------------------
-
- Installation is easy. Simply create a subdirectory and unzip STATxxxx.ZIP into
- it. Then, edit the configuration file to fit your BBS's needs. The structure of
- the USERSTATS.CNF file is as follows:
-
- INTERRUPT ; If this doesn't work, try BIOS.
- 00000000 ; Registration ID (if unregistered leave alone)
- The Vampyre Bar! BBS ; Your BBS's name.
- Darryl ; The SysOp's first name.
- Pierce ; The SysOp's last name.
- xxx=xxx xxx -xxx ; *Enforce ratios for each security level.
-
- * - For each security level you wish to enforce a file/byte ratio on, you must
- include an entry for it in the configuration file. The structure is:
-
- SSS=FFF BBB -DDD
-
- Where SSS is the security level to test, FFF is the file ratio, BBB is the
- byte ratio and DDD is the number of download bytes (divided by 1024) to
- give to the user. The download bytes _MUST_ be preceeded by a '-' symbol
- in order for it to work.
-
- Next, create a batch file for PCBoard to use in order to call the door. The
- batch file for PCBoard 14.5a is as follows:
-
- GENERIC BATCH FILE FOR ALL NODES:
-
- @ECHO OFF
- CLS
- C:
- CD\DOORUTIL\USERSTAT
- USERSTAT USERSTAT.CNF %PCBDRIVE%%PCBDIR%
- %PCBDRIVE%
- %PCBDIR%
- BOARD
-
- PER NODE BATCH FILE:
-
- @ECHO OFF
- CLS
- C:
- CD\DOORUTIL\USERSTAT
- USERSTAT USERSTAT.CNF C:\PCB ; For the node whose director is C:\PCB
- C:
- CD\PCB
- BOARD
-
- Now, go into PCBSETUP and edit your PWRD file. Set _ALL_ security levels that
- will be scanned by User Statistics daily download bytes to 0. This is
- IMPORTANT! If you do not do this, then User Statistics will have NO effect on
- any user's download bytes.
-
- Finally, add to your DOORS.LST the following line:
-
- USERSTAT,,0,-1,0,,-1,N
-
- Or, go into PCBSETUP and enter the following information:
-
- USERS DOOR
- NAME PASSWORD LVL LOGIN SYS SYS SHELL PATH
- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- USERSTAT 0 Y Y N N
