Yah found it after I said that, looked at the files.bbs again. FOund it,
but got the bugs worked out of sqafix, and so far I'm happy. I'm watching
it, it's supposed to do some neat things, such as:
A point requests an area, would be made passthrough.
THe echo has no traffic in x days.
IT automagically sends an unlink request to my uplink, notifies the point a
couple days ahead of time that it's going to do this.
MIght be traveling for business, and need the bbs to be as automatic as
possible, and plain ascii config files can be updated from remote with no
hassle, unlike pulldown menu driven sw that has to be changed on site. YEs
I have security in place so that just not everybody can send me config
files . My personal point can send config files to the system, but
when it breaks open the archive it looks for a certain filename, and then
searches for pwd in that file. IF not found, no config files are changed.
Think I'll stick with the devil I've come to know, now that I've discovered
through some playing what I needed to do differently.
Gradually sneaker netting stuff from that cd to my maximus downloadable
files. Put the cd in the wife's machine, have her open up a dos box and let
me go to work filling floppies .
Regards,
Richard
