- BBSERV V2.11H update doc file (c) F.M. Crosby W1NPR
-
- This file was the update for V2.11F and will suffice if you read
- the read.me file in this zip also.
-
- This version requires V2.11H setserve.exe be run prior to it's use.
-
- This version allows you to path BBSERV.EXE & it's files to any place
- you wish & it may even be run from a Floppy if you want for testing.
-
- This version includes the basic steps evolving into the SHADOW server
- concept being developed by K0ZXF for W0RLI systems & W1NPR for AA4RE.
-
- You will see a change in the LIST format, A shadow class has been
- added and PUB PRI & SHD replace the Public & Private classes.
-
- The "OWNER" of the database is now listed also.
-
- No change will be made in regular "OWNERS", they may be any user you
- can talk into maintaining a database.
-
- A "SHADOW" owner will be a BBS who has a database on his system that will
- provide data for the shadows subscibing to it. The shadow update code is
- being developed now.
-
- "SHADOW" owners are put in parms.bb with ;dih Dir. = C:\path\etc\
- Tom & I are working out these details and some command name and class
- changes will probably be made as we see what we need.
-
- Some error messages for missing .TRL files have been replaced with code to
- create blank files if they are missing & not an error message.
-
- Fixed up some error messages for bad directories, took out reference to
- phone port. Lot's of little spaces & commas in the reply messages.
-
- Added bb_addr to the server in V2.11H and a few others.
