Log Back V1.0 1992 MageWare By: Thomas Kinnen (813)267-2746 V32bis/HST What it Does Log back is a activity.xxx backup program for Wildcat 3.x BBS's. Many utility such as the stats generator for WCPRO delete your activity log. This program makes a copy copy of your log called MM-DD-YY.xxx where MM is the month, DD is the day and YY is the year. The program then adds this into a ARJ archive called mmmLOG.ARJ where mmm is the three letter abrevation for the month. There are a few other programs that do the same thing but not with ARJ. LOGBACK uses arj with the -m1 -jm switches for maximum compression. How to Run It To use LOGBACK make shure that the variable WCNODEID= is set in your CAT.BAT file or your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. If it is not LOGBACK will abort and tell you this. LOGBACK supports WCNODEID's of 1 to 255. Then just run it from the dir that contains your activity.xxx logs. What it Costs LOGBACK is free for now. It was a test for my first program on a MS-DOS machine. If you would like a copy that will say "registered to: xxxx" just call my BBS and leave a message. This will help me know if it serving some purpose. Also any suggestions would be helpful. What features are comming Comming in Version 2 is: 1) User config file telling how many nodes to back up so no need for changing WCNODEID do do different logs from the same batch file. 2) User defined dir for the log archive. 3) Support of eiother ARJ, ZIP, or LZH
