What is it?
-----------
PORTStatus V6.9c [19-MAR-1997] PostCard Ware. Add this ARexx program to
your sys.welcome and let users know the STATUS of their port. ie. UDBase
Open/Closed, Base Open/Closed, PFiles Open/Closed, Sysop Available or Not,
and if NEW USERS are being taken or Not. Plus other logon information.
This program is port speciffic so users will only see the settings that
you have set for the port they call in on. This program does NOT read or
write to any files so it should be very multitasking friendly. Now has
config file and sysop menu options. Now CNet 3.x compatable.
As always, Use at your own risk. It works great here but may bomb
elsewhere.
Installation:
-------------
Read History.Doc for past version notes.
6.9b NOTE: Starting with this version, a new config item was added to the
code.
pw='password' /* Password to enter Remote Editing */
This option is the password that you would like to use to enter
the new Edit Menu. You just type this password at the range
prompt to be presented with the Edit Menu. You may go ahead and
set your password now, but this part of the code will not be
fully functional untill version 7.0 is released.
1. Unarch the program :) Lets hope this part is already done.
2. Move the PORTStatus.rexx program to PFiles (or anywhere)
3. Add this line to your sys.welcome file or as a pfile/door:
{#0PFiles:PORTStatus.rexx}
^
Remember that the { is a CTRL-Q character
4. Save :)
5. Edit the config options located in the program to your liking.
Thats it! Simple.
Operation:
----------
The operation is straight forward. A non-sysop (<31) will be shown a set
of BASIC user information and the status of the port they have logged
onto. The Port information that is shown may be edited by the sysop.
Sysop's (31+) can enter a sysop menu that gives them access to view the
status of their ports.
This should greatly help sysop's that run large multi line systems.
Before, to check all of your ports you would have to highlight the port
number on the CNet control and then go to the pulldown menu to see the
settings and then do this again and again for all your ports. Now you can
select the ALL option, turn on your capture, and have a full listing of
the status of all your port settings. Added a break to the longer listing
sysop functions. ie. During the list ALL and list RANGE the sysop can now
exit the listing at anytime. This will take you back to the sysopmenu.
You may now use CNet's own PARSING system when viewing ports. You also
now have the option of skipping Unloaded ports for all range selections.
