- Here is information pertaining to how to get the new key for v2.66 of
- QuickBBS. You may request a file from 1:363/1071 that contains the program
- called: QUICKEY. It is contained in QUICKEY.zip. Simply run the program and
- then file attach the file it produces (which will be called 'QuickBBS.UPG'.
- Do not change any of the data unless you are sure to keep the format intact.
- Use a plain ASCII editor if you find it necessary, OR simply re-run the
- program which produces it.
-
- OR
-
- You need to create a file that has exactly 12 lines in the format shown
- below:
-
-
- <Your name as on config.bbs>
- <Your BBS name>
- <your old key here>
- <Your BBS phone>
- <Your Home Phone>
- <Your address line 1>
- <Your address line 2 or blank line>
- <Your city, state and zip>
- <With whom you originally registered> eg, QGI or USTI or ADAM
- <When you registered> mm\dd\yy (estimate if you have to)
- <How much you paid>
- <Your net\node number>
-
- It is important that each line be filled in, however, if you don't have a
- net\node number, leave a blank line as a placeholder.
-
- Do not include the brackets '<' or '>' or any leading or trailing
- spaces. This file should NOT contain ANY control characters except for
- the CRLF at the end of each line. No form feeds, tabs, or the like.
-
- This file should be named 'QUICKBBS.UPG'.
-
- File attach this file to 1:363/1071 and it will immediately return a file
- called 'QUICKBBS.KEY' which will contain either your new key, or an short
- note explaining what went wrong. After Friday 11\2\90, you can call 1:363/34
- at it's new number (407) 896-0494 which *should* be in service by then.
-
- If it returns a key, enter it EXACTLY as shown, with no extra spaces
- either before or after the key. If the new key is shorter, be sure and
- delete the extra characters, and backspace to eliminate the extra space
- at the end.
-
- Remember, the file you send us is 'QUICKBBS.UPG', the file we send you will
- be 'QUICKBBS.KEY'.
-
- Non-network nodes will be able to register by direct login to 1:363/1071 or
- 1:363\34. A door will be provided for instant key translation on those
- boards, and should be ready after this weekend. The FREQ key translator is
- available now.

- Happy BBSing
