-
- GMC-BBS is a mailbox-program written for the Commodore AMIGA by Gerhard and
- Christine Moerth.
-
- This manual will guide you through the installation and helps you with the
- usage of the software.
-
- Generally a "Bulletin Board System" (BBS) is a program which clearly
- arranges a lot of notes. This and much more does GMC-BBS. Users also can
- read and write private mails or up- and download programs. Every operation
- is protected by a security level.
-
- For every area of GMC-BBS (Bulletins Menu, File System, Message Board,
- Private Mail, Setup Menu and User Menu) there is a separate security level.
- The limits can be set in the configuration file so that only users with the
- corresponding security level can use the menus.
-
-
- F E A T U R E S
-
-
- - Bulletins, messages and files can be arranged in maximal 100 directories
- with unlimited subdirectories. Each directory has it's own security
- level. Directories and subdirectories can contain any number of
- bulletins, messages and files. The limit is only the available disk
- space.
-
- - GMC-BBS uses external and internal transfer protocols. At the moment
- "X-modem-checksum" and "X-modem-CRC" are integrated. The program
- switches automatically to the protocol of the caller. You can include
- external protocols such as X-modem, Y-modem, Z-modem, Bi-Modem etc.
- which correspond with XPR standard with the configuration file.
-
- - The security level can be individually set for every user. By specific
- placing of security codes it is possible to delegate the service of the
- box.
-
- - All serial I/O-routines are optimized by hand for best performance.
-
- - The SysOp can change the time limit, can edit the rights of the
- user online at any time, control, block or release security level,
- printer output, screen output, keyboard input, serial input and output
- as well as sending the output to the printer or save it as file and he
- can cause the immediate logout of a user.
-
- - Usage with keyboard and mouse for the main functions.
-
- - Usergroups with a special info text can be created, time limits and
- the UL/DL Ratio can be given unlimited.
-
- - Different emulations like TTY, TTY+CLS, VT100/ANSI, VT100/ANSI+CLS can
- be set by the user.
-
- - Special characters are accepted. From OS 2.0 on you can use all graphic
- possibilities of the ANSI emulation with an IBM font. It is urgently
- recommended to use kickstart version 2.0 or higher.
-
- - GMC-BBS was written for highest speed, reliability and flexibility.
- Efficient programming technique leads to 100% multitasking use under
- OS 1.2, 1.3, 2.0, 3.0 and 3.1. The program was written in C and tested on
- different machines.
-
- - NTSC, PAL resolution and drivers for the serial.device or for internal
- modems are configured in the TOOL-TYPES or set as parameters when the
- program starts.
-
- - The serial.device can be released to use other terminal programs without
- restarting GMC-BBS. You can switch the mailbox to "not ready" e.g. to
- backup your hard disk. During this time there will be no access on the
- hard disk or floppy disk.
-
- - Internal, external modems and highspeed modems are supported perfectly
- (e.g. higher DTE speed between computer and modem which allows data
- compression).
-
- - Fax call detection and transmission to external fax programs is possible.
- At the moment ready scripts for Multifax (TKR) and TrapFax (Village
- Tronic) are included. If your modem has no fax detection or your fax
- software cannot handle an existing line (shared mode +FCON) you can also
- connect an external fax switch.
-
- - Freely to configure and expand.
-
- - Multitasking will not be effected. You can do whatever you want, GMC-BBS
- runs as a autonomous program and is programmed correctly.
- NOTE: There cannot be enough RAM.
-
- - Built in timer for parking the harddisk automatically.
-
- - Built in timer for periodically loading of the system time. The system
- time is checked and even the program will be stopped because suggestive
- working is not possible without correct time.
-
- - Online packing of files for download can be used by every user (e.g. LHA,
- LZH, ZOO, ARC, ...). After packing is finished the user gets a message.
-
- - The flashing power LED shows you, if you had user in your mailbox.
- Display to show how many mailbox calls or fax calls came in or how many
- New User joined as a member.
-
- - Call Back function (A given number will be dialed immediately after the
- logout).
-
- - If the configuration of the modem is faulty the respective line will be
- printed which is very useful for correction. Slow modems are supported as
- well as fast modems.
-
- - Integrated free adjustable up- and download ratio which can be effective
- on the number of files or bytes.
-
- - Automatic line break in the chat mode.
-
- - Automatic modem report and protocol of the user action as well as the
- chat in an file is possible.

- rate of the DTE_Speed the serial.device will be set OFF.
-
- - Kickstart 1.2/1.3/2.0/3.0/3.1
- It is urgently recommended to use at least kickstart 2.0
- otherwise you cannot use the program EEU.PRG External User.
-
- - PAL/NTSC monitor drivers must be installed.
-
- This hardware will be supported:
-
- - Memoryboards
- NOTE: 512 kB memoryboards between $C00000 and $C7FFFF as used in older
- A2000A or A500 models are neither chip nor fast ram. With those
- memoryboards it can happen that the program has a malfunction or
- crash.
-
- - Turboboards
-
- - Harddisks
-
- - AMIGA diskdrives of any size (CD-ROM, ZIP too)
-
- - I/O cards

- modems are possible)
-
- - printers (parallel + serial)
-
- No support:
-
- - graphic boards
- Sorry there is no support for graphic boards of any kind. As the program
- was coded in times of kickstart 1.3 and I don't see an urgent need until
- now this was not implemented yet.

-
- System configuration means saving a lot of text files with the necessary
- information. You can use any of the popular editors like ED, DME,
- MicroEmacs, ... The used file is named bbs.config and is located in the
- actual directory from where GMC-BBS is started.
-
- You can also change the text in the following files:
-
- - Guest.Text
- - Info.Text
- - Join.Text
- - Joined.Text
- - Logoff.Text
- - Logon.Text
- - MailboxReady.Text
- - NewUser.Text
-
- The following escape-sequences can be used in the text:
-
- - Esc< no More [Y/n] : with Any key ...
- - Esc> with More [Y/n] : with Any key ...
- - Esc- no More [Y/n] : no Any key ...
- - Esc+ with More [Y/n] : at once Any key ...
-
- If no such escape-sequence is used you will be asked after the set number of
- lines More [Y/n]: and at the end of the text the input of Any key... is
- expected. These commands can also be used at Online HelpText, Read Bulletin,
- Read Doc Files and Read Message.
-
- If you start GMC-BBS from disk you have to remove the write protection so
- that the program can write the user data and the statistic data to the disk.
- In other case the program saves the files to the Ram Disk without a warning
- and are lost after the next reboot.
-
- Basic information to bbs.config:
-
- The keywords have to be written on the left border without a leading blank.
- The "=" may not have blanks before and after that. The sequence of keywords
- can be changed in any way. The only exception are keywords which are in
- numerical order ("Prot_UL_Nam _0= before PROT_UL_Name_1 ...). Comments can
- be written without any care (except the "=", it is reserved for the
- keywords). Try to keep the comments as short as possible, so the program can
- start faster.

- ParkHD_Delay=-1
- Here you can set the HDPark delay-time in seconds (maximum is 32768).
- When the user has left your box, the harddisk will be parked after this
- delay automatically. If you don't want to use this option "-1" must be
- set. To use this option you need the two programs "Park" and "Unpark" in
- your RAM:env/BBS/ directory. If you use OS 2.0 you can automate this
- step by copying the files in the following directory:
- SYS:Prefs/Env-Archive/BBS/ (will be copied automatically to the RAM
- directory during boot). The mentioned programs are delivered by some
- manufacturers like ICD Inc. (with Advantage 2000).
-
-
- S e t C l o c k _ D e l a y
-
-
- SetClock_Delay=3600
- As the Amiga system time is not very exact, the mailbox program loads
- the time of the internal clock from time to time. The size of the
- intervals is set with this function in seconds. Additionally the time
- is loaded on each user logon. If you have no internal clock enter -1.
-
- The value of SetClock_Delay have to be greater than ParkHD_Delay and
- less than 32768.
-
- NOTE: To minimize harddisk activity SetClock should be loaded resident.

-
- G E N E R A L
-
-
- Basic information to external transfer protocols: The reason for using
- external protocols is that you cannot integrate every protocol in the
- program because this would waste too much memory. So every SysOp can
- integrate his favorite protocols. In this way new protocols could be changed
- without needing a new update of GMC-BBS. You can integrate up to 100 (0-99)
- different external protocols.
-
- IMPORTANT: If the external protocols are opening the serial.device in
- the shared mode you have to append the option %S. In some of
- the internal modems this option is not possible. (e.g. the SUPRA
- MODEM using the modem0.device). Here it is important to take
- care that the DTR delay time of the modem will be expanded to
- 1 - 1,5 seconds so that the modem does not hang up when handing
- over to the external transfer protocol and vice versa.
- (e.g. S25=100 at ModemOpen)
- It is also possible to force the modem to ignore DTR signals.
- (e.g. &D0 at ModemOpen)
-
-
- O P T I O N S
-
-
- Options: %A => Screen address of BBS.PRG which will be written in HEX.
- This is important to put the external protocols on the
- BBS.PRG screen.
-
- %B => At the start of the external protocol the actual baud-
- rate will be handed over.
-
- %D => Device name will be displayed. (Default = serial.device)
-
- %F => Filename of the transferred file (up- or download). If this
- option is not set the upload-protocol has to hand over the
- name. (Z-Modem) In this case the file comment will be
- written after the upload. Otherwise the user number and the
- user name will be added.
-
- %P => Path to the file which will be transferred.
-
- %S => serial.device keeps open in shared mode.
-
- %U => Unit number will be displayed (default: 0).
-
- %0 => Filename of the 1st file to be downloaded. This option can
- only be used if the protocol can handle more than one
- file, otherwise %F has to be used (read Z-modem download).
- If OS 1.2 or OS 1.3 is used there can only 3 files entered
- per download.
-
- %1 => Filename of the 2nd file to be downloaded.
-
- ..
-
- %9 => Filename of the 10th file to be downloaded
