(feel free to delete the rest of this file before sending to RBBS-PC support)
INSTRUCTIONS:
This file has several uses:
1) Editors of the US BBS list, and other curious callers, can get quick
information about your BBS.
2) Sending this file to the RBBS-PC support BBS will register you as
an RBBS-PC SysOp.
3) Information from this file will be sent to the US BBS list editors
by RBBS-PC support (only if you want us to)
To complete this form, follow these steps:
NOTE: DO NOT ADD, DELETE, OR CHANGE LINES IN THIS FORM UNLESS YOU ARE
INSTRUCTED TO DO SO!
The first section of this form is the US BBS list information form. You
should enter your information on each line, but ONLY inside the [ ] areas.
Do NOT delete or move the [ ] characters. If there isn't enough room
inside the [ ] to answer the question, SHORTEN YOUR ANSWER!
The first question (send to USBBS list?) is important. If you enter "N" in
this box, RBBS-PC support will NOT forward the information to US BBS list
editors. You should still enter all information, since RBBS-PC support
uses the information also. If you answer "Y", RBBS-PC support will send a
copy of the information to US BBS list editors, so they can consider adding
your BBS to the US BBS list.
The second question is also important. EVERY TIME YOU MODIFY OR CHECK THIS
FILE FOR ACCURACY, enter the current date here. This way, we will know if
the information is current. Each time you send this file to RBBS-PC
support, check your answers, and change the date.
The next section of this form requests additional information for the
RBBS-PC world registry. RBBS-PC support uses this section for:
- selecting beta test sites
- helping new SysOps find local RBBS-PC systems.
Complete this section as you did the US BBS section. Again, stay within
the [ ] (unless a question doesn't have [ ]). Notice the "PRIVATE" next to
the VOICE PHONE, ADDRESS and BBS PHONE NUMBER? If you put a "Y" in these
boxes, RBBS-PC support WILL NOT give this information to anyone else.
However, if you don't mind voice calls, and you put a "N" next to your
voice number, RBBS-PC support may give your number to a new SysOp in your
area who needs help.
In any case, please include all information, even if you wish to keep it
private.
The line after "number of nodes" is where you enter information about each
node of your BBS. If you run more than one node, duplicate the "phone
number" line for each node. If you have private phone numbers (for
subscribers), put a "Y" in the PRIVATE box. In the SPEED box, enter one of
the following numbers:
1 - 300 bps Note: options such as MNP,
2 - 1200 bps V.42, V.42bis are NOT
3 - 2400 bps (CCITT V.22bis) important. Just be
4 - 9600 bps (non-standard) concerned with the actual
5 - 9600 bps (CCITT V.32) speed your modem can handle.
6 - 14400 bps (USRobotics HST)
7 - 14400 bps (CCITT V.32bis)
Use the HIGHEST number your modem supports. Ex: If you have a USRobotics
dual standard V.32bis, use 7, even though the modem also supports 6, 5,
etc.
The last section of the form is free-form. Use the space provided to tell
us more about your BBS. It helps us to know how RBBS-PC is being used by
all our SysOps.
----------------------------------
Okay, you've taken the time to fill out this form, now...
What do you do with it?
First, save the file using the name of your BBS as the filename. For
example, if your BBS is called "MegaBytes RBBS-PC", name the file:
MEGABYTE.DEF. The ".DEF" extension will protect the file when you
upload it to RBBS-PC support. Call the RBBS-PC support BBS at:
407-487-3441 or
407-487-3442
Upload the file and put it in the "???" category. While you are on the
BBS, you may also want to answer the "VERIFY" questionnaire (so you can
get extended access to the BBS. You may also want to answer the "OSB"
questionnaire, so you can be included in the "official support BBS" list.
Of course, you should join the RBBS conference and tell the world how much
fun running RBBS-PC is.
You should also save a copy of this file using the original name "LG-9999.DEF"
for online use. Remove any PRIVATE information. In fact, we suggest you
delete everything but the US BBS section. RBBS-PC already comes configured
to handle the "BBS VERIFY" call option. Here's how this works:
When someone calls your BBS and uses the name "BBS VERIFY" and password
"CALL", RBBS-PC will display the LG-9999.DEF file and then hang-up.
Editors of the US BBS list use this method to quickly verify the status
of an RBBS-PC system (we hope other BBS software will implement this
feature). You can test the system by logging on your own BBS, and
when RBBS-PC asks you for your first name, type: BBS VERIFY CALL
You should see your LG-9999.DEF file, and then RBBS-PC will hang-up.
