No files may be altered, added, or deleted from this UNIT. YOU USE THIS PROGRAM AT YOUR OWN RISK. I have tested it on my own 486, 286 and XT computers, but I will not assume any responsibility for any problems which GRAUSER may cause you. It is expected that if you find GRAUSER useful, you will register your copy and recieve a FULL working copy from the author. WHAT YOU SHOULD HAVE RECIEVED GRAUSER was originally packed for distribution in ZIP format(Trademark of PKWARE) with the archive name GRAUS102.ZIP. GRAUS102.ZIP should contain the following files:- GRAUSER.EXE Main executable GRAUSER.OVR GRAUSER screens USAGE.EXE SUB program used by GRAUSER GRAUSER.DOC This documentation SC.EXE Small EXE used by GRAUSER FILE_ID.DIZ Discription of this package REGISTER.AUS Registration form for AUSTRALIA REGISTER.CAN Registration form for CANADA If any of the above files are missing you are strongly advised to contact the AUTHOR via NETmail 3:640/280 and explain where you recieved the incomplete archive from. DISTRIBUTION GRAUSER may be distributed on any BBS or by any Internet provider provided no FEE of more than $5 Australian is asked for the program. GRAUSER may be distributed on commercial CD's that have the mark "BBS Ready" written on the label/packaging of the CD. GRAUSER may-not be distributed on any DISKETTES or BLACK-BOX vending machines that charge more than $3 Australian. REGISTRATION page 3 GRAUSER may be used for as long as you wish in SHAREWARE mode, however you are encouraged to register your copy. When you register you copy a NEW copy of GRAUSER will be sent to you which will have your details encoded within the codeing so that no one else may use it. Registration is only $20 Australian - $15 American - $15 Canadian Please read one of the document files REGISTER.??? INSTALLATION page 4 You must have the environment varable set in your autoexec.bat file which tells RemoteAccess and GRAUSER where you RA system files are stored. Your AUTOEXEC.BAT file should have a line like SET RA=C:\RA If NOT than GRAUSER will not work. It is now necessary to explain a bit about the system usage graph that RA shows to your callers so you can understand the configuration. Below you will see a screen shot of the SYSTEM usage graph created by GRAUSER for LINE 2 on a mulitiline BBS. The graph is done in a similar manner as RemoteAccess. All multi-line sysops would have a directory structure like C:\RA\NODE1 C:\RA\NODE2 etc etc for each of his/her lines and would also know that RA stores MODEM configuration, and other important files in those directorys. One of those files is called TIMELOG.BBS which contains the information required by RA to create a SYSTEM USAGE graph to display to your callers.

NOT ANYMORE! With GRAUSER you can view the system usage graph on any of your lines at the push of a button! page 5 But, before that can be done you have to tell GRAUSER the directory of each of your lines is started up from because RA does not store that info in any of her configuration files. From experience I found most sysops will give the directory names a combination of letters and numbers with the number being on the end of the NAME in ordere like, NODE1, NODE2, LINE1, LINE20 etc etc SO, when you first start GRAUSER you will be asked for the full DRIVE and directory of NODE 1 and if you enter C:\RA\NODE1 GRAUSER will remove the 1 and replace with a 2 for node 2 and 3 for line 3 and so on. IF you used this methode of line numbering then you will have GRAUSER setup within 60 seconds. Well, thats about all GRAUSER needs to know as the rest of the configuration will be done AUTOMATICALLY. page 6 Use your ARROW keys to move through each menu item and press CARRAGE RETURN to select your item.

Hence, I felt it would be best to use my programming time on creating features that RemoteAccess does not do rather than waist time cloning the features RA already has! Sound sensible, I hope so. So, Run RAMGR does simply that. GRAUSER will shell to dos and execute RAMGR and to speed this process up I decided NOT to swap to disk when running RAMGR. Please consult the documentation that came with your version of RemoteAccess if you do not know how to use RAMGR. ABOUT ----- Just tells you a bit about GRAUSER, ie, registration costs etc. When you register your copy it will say REGISTERED copy. Wow! Feels good to know you pay for what you use.

Once that is done, GRAUSER will make the changes to the user base. SAMPLE 1 -------- Lets say you wish to give all users on security 100 a new CREDIT amount of 500 credits. Choose the criteria EQUAL TO SECURITY and enter 100 as the security than use your ARROW keys to move the Highlite BAR to CREDITS. Press enter, and enter 500 as the new credits. GRAUSER will than search your user base and all users with a security of 100 will be given 500 credits. SAMPLE 2 -------- Lets say, you want all those older than 21 to be given access to adult files and you have RA setup so that only those with the A3 Flag turned on may have access to adult files. Choose the criteria GREATER THAN AGE, and enter 21, now use the arrow keys to HIGHLITE the FLAG A 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 ON region on your screen. Press enter and GRAUSER will ask you WHICH flag Number to turn ON. Use your arrow keys to cycle through the numbers until FLAG A3 is Highlited. Press Enter and GRAUSER will search the user base and all those older the 21 will have their A3 FLAG turned ON. page 9 GRAUSER allows you globaly turn 1 flag on at a time or you can have GRAUSER turn ALL flags 1 to 8 on or off in one go. Be careful it's a very powerful feature that must be used with care. SAMPLE 3 -------- HOW to turn the D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6 D7 D8 flags ON all at the same time. Very easy, say you want to turn ALL of the D Flags ON in one go and you want this done to all users greater than security 500. Choose the Criteria GREATER THAN SECURITY and enter 500, now use the arrow keys to highlite the FLAG D 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 ON and press enter. Now, you will see a BAR which asks which flags to turn on. Keep pressing the left arrow key until ALL flags are alite. Now, press enter and GRAUSER will search the user base for users who's security is greater than 500, and turn ALL of their D flags ON!

Why show BOTH? RemoteAccess stores the total amount of calls your system has taken in a file called SYSINFO.BBS. Sometime, this file becomes damaged or the you may have experienced a majoy hard drive failure and your total system call count was lost, corrupt or whatever. The current utilities on the market allow you to alter the call count and if you happen to remeber the amount of calls your system has had you can use the util to patch the SYSINFO.BBS file to the new count. GRAUSER, will show you the total calls as registered by SYSINFO.BBS and will also look into your user record and add up all the individual calls made by users and display this to you. In other words, you will not have to guess the total calls, GRAUSER will use the USERS.BBS file to show you what the actual call counter in SYSINFO.BBS should contain and will give you the option to change the number contained in the SYSINFO.BBS record. SO, when you press enter while the SYSTEM CALLS is highlited GRAUSER will show you the total calls registered by SYSINFO.BBS and USERS.BBS and ask you id you want to change the call count. IF you answer NO GRAUSER will return to the main menu. Answer yes and you will see at the bottom of your screen some numbers which match the call count registered in SYSINFO.BBS. Just press the DELETE key to remove those numbers and type in the new amount you wish GRAUSER to store in SYSINFO.BBS. page 13 LAST CALL --------- ─── ┌──────┐ ┌──────┐ ┌──────┐ ┌─┐ ┌─┐ ┌─────┐ ┌─────┐ ┌──────┐ ─── ──── │ ┌────┘ │ ┌──┐ │ │ ┌──┐ │ │ │ │ │ │ ┌───┘ │ ┌───┘ │ ┌──┐ │ ──── ───── │ │ ┌──┐ │ └──┘ │ │ └──┘ │ │ │ │ │ │ └───┐ │ └─┐ │ └──┘ │ ───── ────── │ │ └┐ │ │ ┌─┐ ┌┘ │ ┌──┐ │ │ │ │ │ └───┐ │ │ ┌─┘ │ ┌─┐ ┌┘ ────── ──────── │ └──┘ │ │ │ │ └┐ │ │ │ │ │ └─┘ │ ┌───┘ │ │ └───┐ │ │ │ └┐ ─────── ───────── └──────┘ └─┘ └──┘ └─┘ └─┘ └─────┘ └─────┘ └─────┘ └─┘ └──┘ ──────── TODAYS CALLERS RECORD ┌─ Name ──────────────────────────────┐ ╒═══════════════════════╕ │ Jeffrey Dougall │ │ Help │ └─────────────────────────────────────┘ ╞═══════════════════════╡ ┌─ Handle ────────────────────────────┐ │ ESC Exit │ │ Sysop │ GreenLights ╞═══════════════════════╡ └─────────────────────────────────────┘ Software │ ARROW Keys Next/Last│ ┌─ City ──────────────────┐┌─ Baud ───┐ Development ╞═══════════════════════╡ │ Ipswich ││ 28800 │ │ Edit │ └─────────────────────────┘└──────────┘ All Rights ╞═══════╤═══════════════╡ ┌─ On ─┐┌─ Off ─┐ ┌─ Calls ──┐┌ Line ┐ Reserved 1996│ 1 │ Line │ │ 22:30 ││ 22:49 │ │ 987 ││ 5 │ │ 2 │ Name │ └───────┘└───────┘ └──────────┘└──────┘ │ 3 │ City │ Record 1 of 5 Calls Today │ 4 │ Baud │ │ 5 │ Handle │ │ 6 │ Logon │ GRAUSER v1.02 │ 7 │ Logoff │ ╘═══════╧═══════════════╛ The last call editor makes it possible to quickly view and edit the last callers list kept by RemoteAccess. Select 1, and alter the callers line number, 2, to change the users name and so on. I decided not to include ADD or REMOVE a user as I felt this is not realy necessary because a sysop should not start something he can't finish. ie, say you want to add a caller or 2 to make you BBS look busy or wish to alter a callers line from 1 to 3 making your BBS appear to have 3 lines. Don't you think that is silly? I mean, think about it, you would have to do this every day otherwise your users will cotten on to what you have been doing and once they catch you out for dishonesty it may take quite some time for you to regain their respect! page 14 REPORTS ------- GRAUSER allows you to create 4 types of user list in TXT format which are explained below. TYPE A: TXT file crated TYPE-A.LST, contains users NAME, VOICE and DATA phone number. The idea is to give you a quick referance TXT file so you can locate users and phone numbers quickly. TYPE B: TXT file created TYPE-B.LST, conatins users NAME, LOCATION and VOICE phone number. The idea is to give you a quick referance TXT file so you can locate users and phone numbers quickly. TYPE C: TXT file created TYPE-C.LST, contains users NAME, LOCATION PHONE NUMBERS, SUB EXPIRY DATE and ADDRESS details. TYPE D: TXT file created TYPE-D.LST, the file is created PRINTER ready ie Jeffrey Dougall ADDRESS 1 ADDESSS 2 ADDRESS 3 and a form feed placed after each user, so, if you have a printer that accepts envelopes you can easily print up envelopes addressed to your users. DUPE CHECKING GRAUSER has a very FAST and powerful dupe checker which scans your user base for possible duplicate users based on NAME, PHONE NUMBERS, PASSWORD, GARBAGE CHARECTORS etc I say POSSIBLE because GRAUSER does not check for EXACT duplicates, GRAUSER does a thoughough cross check meaning those users that spell their names differently ie MICHEAL and MICHAEL would be detected as a possible dupes. ^^ ^^ I have had users logon with more than 1 account by speeling their names differantly and with a user base of 800+ makes it hard to manualy spot this. GRAUSER will find them quickly! GRAUSER also looks for garbage charectors in a users name. Some users will logon twice by using their normal name the first time and the 2nd time they add a PERIOD to the end of their name and SILLY RA thinks they are a new user. GRAUSER will detect this and will also detect users that have other rubbish charectors like [(*! etc that RemoteAccess SHOULD detect before letting them into your system. page 15
