Ladies and Gentlemen!
What is QuickBBS FaxServer?
-----------------------------
Hello fellow QuickBBS Sysops!
This file is a utility that let´s a user send a fax from your BBS.
This file will ONLY work if you have Qfax installed on your HD
with Qfax.inf in C:\ .And you must offcourse have a FAXModem ;)
What does QuickBBS Faxserver do?
-------------------------------
Well ;) QuickBBS Faxserver is a .dor file to QuickBBS that
let´s a user send a fax from your BBS.This is what happens:
A user uploads the ASCII file he want to fax away to someone.
When the upload is done,he writes in the phonenumber to where the fax
is going to be sent on the descriptionline.Then the ASCII file converts
to Qfax format and places it self DIRECTLY into the Outgoing map in Qfax.
All the above happens online!!!
After that,its up to you when to send it away.I dont send a fax away
before i validated it. There are many strange people out there sending
threats and things like "You are a stupid motherfu**er" and so on ;)
Files in the Archive:
---------------------
FAX\QFAX_ASC.PRG This is the program that converts the
ASCII file uploaded from the user to
Qfax format and places the fax into
the Outgoingmap in Qfax ;)
(Thanks to Borland International!!)
FAX\FILES.BBS This is where the phonenumbers that
the user type in,will be stored...
You have to look in this file to know
where to the user want to send his fax!
(Im working on a better solution)
FAX.ASC This is the USER document to QuickBBS
faxserver.
FAX.DOR QuickBBS Faxserver V1.0
FAX.MNU This is the QuickBBS Faxserver menu
SYSOP.DOC Your reading it now ;)
Installation:
-------------
Well its real simple.Place the \FAX\ folder inside the \QBBS\ folder.
Then place the FAX.MNU in your \MENU\ folder and FAX.ASC in your \TEXT\
folder.Then there is only the FAX.DOR file left,and guess where you put
that!Well..you put it together with all the other .DOR files on your BBS ;-)
The next step for you is to load your menueditor and make a new menuchoice
in your Main Menu (Or where you want the Faxserver) that jumps to the FAX.MNU
Eg. < F > Send faxes with QuickBBS Faxserver.
Well,you all know how to do that.If not,how did you get QuickBBS to work at
all!!!! ;-).. NOTE!!! Its possible you have to change the path´s in the
FAX.MNU choice "Instructions" to. I use the filebrowser with the optionline
c:\qbbs\text\fax.asc . Check that out so the user will get his instruction
when he press the button ;)-..And PLEASE do NOT change anything else.
How to test it in local mode:
-----------------------------
If you want to test it localy,you have to put your ASCIIfax file in the
/FAX/ map first,(I usually test with Desktop.inf :-D )because you can´t
upload anything when your online local ;)
When you get the question to choose a transferprotocol,just press Quit.
Then you can continue using the Faxserver to se how it works.
Well..Thats all folks.This is only the first release of the Faxserver.
There will be more.. As i sat down writing this document i came up
with some more ideas and improvements..;) But they will have to wait to V1.1 ;)
And PLEASE do NOT change anything in the doorfile.
If you come up with some good ideas and things to get the Faxserver
to become better,then pleas mail me your ideeas instead,and i will implent
them (And your name,If i find them useful) in the next version.I will NOT like
logging into BBS´es and find that the Sysop have changed my .dor file completely.
And BTW.. If you like this Utility. Plz send a postcard to:
