; Node Configuration for The Online Pub
; -------------------------------------
;
; This file contains configuration information specific to each node. It
; consists of blocks of information, with the settings inside each block
; applying to the node that the block is setup for. Blocks start with the Node
; keyword and end with the EndNode keyword.
;
; Each line has the same format as TOP.CFG. Please see TOP.CFG if you
; require an explanation of how keywords and settings work.
;
; An explanation of each keyword and setting can be found at the end of
; this file.

; Keyword Explanations
; --------------------
;
; Some of the settings in this file turn certain features ON or OFF, and are
; noted in the explanations below. For these settings, you may use any one of
; the following words as valid settings. The words on the first line turn the
; option ON, and the words on the second line turn the option OFF.
;
; ON YES ENABLED 1 TRUE
; OFF NO DISABLED 0 FALSE
;
; -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; All of these settings are REQUIRED in order for TOP to run!
;
; -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; Node - Begins the configuration block for a node. This should be set to
; the node number to configure, from 1 to 32767.
;
; Type - Type of the node. One of "Remote", "Local", or "LAN" (without the
; quotation marks). "Remote" is the usual setting, and is used when TOP can
; get information about the user from a BBS (via a drop file). "Local" is used
; when there is no BBS and TOP needs to get the user's name itself. If you
; want to be able to log into TOP directly from the command line, set up one or
; more "Local" nodes. "LAN" is a special form of "Local" which can be used in
; network situations. It works just like "Local", except that if the node
; requested is already in use, TOP will try the next node up, and continue this
; until it finds a free node (or reaches the MaxNodes configuration setting, in
; which case TOP will abort). This is handy in cases in networks where the
; workstation number isn't available, or needs to be overridden. This way, you
; can have more than one person inside TOP from LAN workstations without
; worrying about node number conflicts.
;
; DropFilePath - The full path to the door drop file, created by the BBS.
; A backslash at the end is optional. This setting is only needed for nodes of
; "Remote" type.
;
; ConfigFile - The full path and name of the configuration file to use,
; usually TOP.CFG in the TOP directory. The use of multiple configuration
; files for TOP is _not_ recommended, but support for it is included in case
; there is a need for it.
;
; LogFile - The full path and file name of the file that this node should
; use to log its activity, usually TOPx.LOG (where x is the node number) in the
; TOP directory. IMPORTANT: You must use a different log file for each node
; or TOP will abort with a file-sharing error!
;
; SolidNode - TOP uses this setting to determine how it should act if the
; node number that TOP is trying to use is already in use according to TOP.
; When a node is "solid", it means that the node number will only ever be used
; by one task. If this setting is ON, TOP will assume that no other task could
; be using this node, meaning a crash must have occured, and will force itself
; on the requested node number. If this setting is OFF, TOP will abort if the
; requested node is already in use, except in "LAN" mode where it will behave
; as described for the Type keyword (above). This setting should _ALWAYS_ be
; OFF for "LAN" nodes, and can be either ON or OFF for other types.
;
; -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; The remaining settings are only needed for nodes of "Remote" type.
;
; -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; FOSSIL - Controls whether or not TOP should use a FOSSIL driver. Set to
; ON to use one, and OFF if you don't want to use a FOSSIL. If this setting is
; OFF, _all_ of the remaining settings are _required_ for this node. This
; setting is not needed if you are using the OS/2 version, because OS/2 does
; not use FOSSIL drivers.
;
; Port - Communications port number to use for this node. This is normally
; available from the drop file, but can be optionally overridden from here.
; Set to 0 to get the port number from the drop file, or for local-only nodes.
;
; Speed - Speed to lock this node's comport at. For nodes using a FOSSIL,
; it may be 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, or 38400. Set to 0 if you
; don't lock your port, or if you lock your FOSSIL from the command line or
; CONFIG.SYS file. For nodes not using a FOSSIL, this setting may be any value
; that evenly divides into 115200, up to and including 115200, or 0 to disable
; port locking. WARNING: This setting is _not_ verified by TOP!
;
; -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; The remaining settings are only used by nodes that do NOT use a FOSSIL
; driver.
;
; -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; PortAddress - The hexadecimal address of the communications port to use.
;
; PortIRQ - The IRQ number of the communications port to use.
;
; UseFIFO - Set to ON if you have a 16550 communications chip on the serial
; card for this node. Set to OFF if you do not have a 16550, or if you do not
; want TOP to use FIFO buffering on a 16550.
;
; FIFOTrigger - This is a rather complex setting which is supported by
; TOP's serial communications library. I do not really know what it does.
; Valid settings are 1, 4, 8, and 14, and are not verified by TOP. The usual
; setting is 4. I suspect that if you need to change this setting, you'll
; already know. This setting is not required if UseFIFO is OFF.
;
; RxBufSize - Controls the size of TOP's serial receive buffer. Valid
; settings are 0 to 65535. The recommended setting is 256. If TOP is losing
; characters from the remote end, try increasing this setting.
;
; TxBufSize - Controls the size of TOP's serial transmit buffer. Valid
; settings are 0 to 65535. The recommended setting is 1024. If TOP's
; communication is slow or stuttered, or if the remote end is losing characters
; sent by TOP, try increasing this setting.
;
; UseRTSCTS - Sets RTS/CTS flow control. Should normally be ON for modems
; with maximum speeds of 9600 or above and OFF for modems 2400 or lower.
;
; -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; This last keyword is a special case, and is required for _all_ nodes.
;
; -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; EndNode - Marks the end of the node configuration block. This keyword
; does _not_ require a setting, however it may help you to use a setting that
; is the same as the setting for the Node keyword, so you know which node you
; are ending the configuration for.
