CG> 1. Lock out a user that has a baud rate of 2400 or

max.ctl:
        % The following statements tell Maximus what baud rate the user
        % must have to get access to certain features.  'Logon Baud'
        % specifies what the user's baud rate must be just to get on
        % the system -- this is in addition to the minimum baud rates
        % specified below in the 'Session Limits' portion of the Session
        % section.  The second statement, 'NonTTY Baud', tells Maximus
        % what speeds users must call at to use either ANSI or AVATAR
        % graphics.
        Min Logon  Baud 300
        Min NonTTY Baud 300
(this is like the global system speed)
access.ctl:
    %   LogonBaud         This is the lowest baud rate that a user
    %                           at this level may use. The default is that
    %                           any baud rate is acceptable.
    %
    %   XferBaud          This is the lowest baud rate that a user
    %                           at this level may used to download files.
    %                           The default is that a caller at any baud
    %                           rate is allowed to download.
 CG> 2. Change the Maximus Full Screen Editor menu. [maxed] 
 CG> Is the token to do this, but how am I meant to use it? 
like when you hit Ctrl+K + Ctrl+H or F10? that's done under the menu "EDIT" 
in menus.ctl. extra options show (insert line etc) in Bored.
  
 CG> 3. Make a custom log in screen (similar to obv/2, iniq, and other BBS 
 CG> packages). BTW, I dont mean a log in screen as a matrix menu). 
 CG> All I want is one of my ansi's 
 CG> displayed and users to be able to enter in their 
 CG> Name/Alias and Password in lines that I select. 
sure. make up your ansi, then use ans2mec on it. then at the bottom have it 
go to the line you want with a [locate y x] command. Then change english.mad 
(or whatever language file you're using) so that the login prompt is 
something like:
"                      Login: "
 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 where this part fits in with the ansi it's being displayed over (so it 
basically redoes the ansi then asks for the name)..
do the same thing with "Password:" ... i'm not sure if you can display the 
"Name [Y,n]?" thing like that or not...
i can probably crank something out in pascal if you want, but let me know if 
that works first.
ttyl, greg
