subject: Maximus and msgAreas permissions

Maximus deals with users not nodes.

Maximus can have up to 32 (if I remember correctly) user flags that can be
used to limit what users have access to which areas.  I've been using that
for some private areas.  I don't know if we have tested this code in the
Linux build.  I probably have...  I just don't remember.

Take care....

 GKA> Hello All!

 GKA> Setting Maximus up with the msgareas special permissions!
 GKA> Can I in Maximus do it by setting permissions for 
 GKA> nodes so that some nodes/users can see some echoes and 
 GKA> read and write in them both as special user ad by qwk.
 GKA> Done so if a node in linuxnet stn pascal-net justaXnet 
 GKA> can see the echos and have permission to bot read and 
 GKA> write in those echoes.

 GKA> So it is done so the other echoes there not is fidonet 
 GKA> echoes is hide and have only showing and permission if 
 GKA> a user is a node in this nets.
