Warranty
This program is distrubuted without warranty. In no event will Keith S. Kolbo
be held responsible to you for damages of any kind, direct or indirect. This
program is made available for your use at your own risk. It worked on my
system without incident, but this does not mean that it will produce the same
results on your system.
What the program should do..
When run in the LOGON.BAT, the Page Bell Screen will check in the PAGSCRN.CFG
file to see if the user's name is listed. When the program is called with the
"ON" argument, if it finds the user's name it will turn on access to the page
bell. If it does not find the user's name in the list then it will turn off
the access to the page bell. The "OFF" argument works the opposite way.
PAGSCRN.EXE reads the TRIBBS.SYS file and modifies the NODE.DAT file.
Usage PAGSCRN [ ON or OFF ].
Installation
** Back up NODE.DAT **
** Back up NODE.DAT **
Get the hint? <grin>
First place a copy of PAGSCRN.EXE in each node's main directory. Also place
a copy of PAGSCRN.CFG in each node's main directory. PAGSCRN.CFG is a
straight ASCII text file that may be created with any text editor that is
capable of saving text in a straight ASCII / DOS format. Place one person's
name per line ending in a carriage return/line feed.
SAMPLE PAGSCRN.CFG
John Doe
Dan Quayle
Roger Rabbit
The config file is case insensitive. Upper or lower case will be evaluated
the same.
Next set up your LOGON.BAT. LOGON.BAT goes in each node's main directory.
SAMPLE LOGON.BAT
cd \tribbs <---- Change to nodes's main dir
pagscrn on <---- Call page bell screen "ON" if you want the
board bell access turned on when a name is found.
Call it with "OFF" if you want the access
turned off when a name is found.
That is about all there is to it. You may now set the security level of the
page bell as low as you want it. Now you may chose to have it only on for
special guests or turn it off when an abuser hits the board.
This program was compiled with Borland's Turbo C++
TriBBS was written by Mark Goodwin who retains all rights to that name
and software.. He has no connection with the Page Bell Screen and he
is not responsible for it's actions.
