Before installing VERIFIX 4.01 you *MUST* read this file!
After trying VERIFIX I'm convinced that you find it to be "The New Standard
In Call Back Verification!"
BoardWatch magazine has a top 100 list of the BEST BBSs list. Wildcat
SysOps found in that list ARE USING VERIFIX!
Please note: The program POSTMSTR.ZIP is NOT found in this .zip file. This
utility is used to send messages to the user and to the sysop. Please
download it from the support BBS or from the CatHouse BBS (Mustang's BBS)
if you wish to write messages to the user!
Unregistered users:
You must call the support BBS at 215-968-4998, go to the main menu and
choose [E]...create dEmo key. This will get you a 45 day demo key. The
entire process takes less than 1 minute, so the toll charges are MINIMAL.
It is worth it!
If you belong to fidonet, send me a netmail message with your first and
last name, address, voice and bbs phone numbers, AND YOUR WILDCAT
REGISTRATION NUMBER! I will create a key for you and put it on hold. You
can then poll me the next day to pick up your 45 day demo key. My fidonet
node address is 1:273/215
==========================================================================
- Users running verifix 4.0, upgrading to verifix 4.01:
1. Unzip all the files found in VERIFIX.ZIP into your verifix
subdirectory.
2. Next you must run the file CVT4-401.EXE. This will convert your
VERIFIX.CFG file to the new format. I added new features, thus the
configuration file changed again.
3. Run VCONFIG.EXE and look through all the fields to make sure
everything got converted OK. While you are in vconfig, go to the new
fields that have been added and change them according to what you want.
4. If you are going to use the Auto Upgrade feature, you'll need to either
extract the AUTOUP.BBS screen out of the display.zip file, or create your
own.
5. That is it. Please read the documentation file and the WHATSNEW.401
file to see what else has been added!
==========================================================================
- Users upgrading from VERIFIX version 3.01 or lower to version 4.01
1. Unzip VERIFIX.ZIP into your verifix subdirectory.
2. The entire VERIFIX.CFG file has been changed. You MUST delete this
file, then run VCONFIG to reconfigure verifix.
3. Verifix now uses .BBS files just like wildcat does. You should change
your display files (.SCR) accordingly.
4. Read VERIFIX.DOC for all the new features and changes.
