A split screen chat session will start. To get out of chat, do the same thing: click your right mouse button on the session window and select CHAT. 敖陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳 How do I set up news? 青陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳 Create a news file with the following naming convention: any_name_you_want.new.ans (or .asc, .avt or .rip) Place this file in your \Adept\System\Sysnews or your \Adept\System\Miscnews directory. Then from the pulldown menus, click on: CONFIG->BBS->BBS ACTION FLAGS Add USE ANSI NEWS to the active BBS flags. Then click on: CONFIG->BBS->NEW USER DEFAULTS Add SEES MISC NEWS and SEES SYSTEM RELATED NEWS to the Flags to default to on new users. The news files that you create will be shown only once to your users. If you want to show a file to your users every time that they log in to the BBS, create a NEWS.ANS (.asc, .avt or .rip) and place it in your \Adept\Text directory. The news files are displayed in the following order: \Adept\Text\News.asc \Adept\System\Sysnews\syst.news.asc \Adept\System\Miscnews\misc.news.asc 敖陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳 How do I include meta variables in my ANSI screens? 青陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳 One of the powerful things about Adept is that you can include meta variables in your screens that will show up when they are displayed. There are meta variables for user name, time left, time of day ect... Problem is, that if you just type them into your ANSI screen, they will be inserted and sometimes make your screen edges jagged. The best thing to do here is to use TheDraw (a shareware ANSI drawing program). Draw your ANSI screen, turn on ANIMATION mode by clicking your right mouse button on the screen and selecting TOGGLES->ANIMATION MODE. Then click your right mouse button again and select ANIMATION->RESCAN->TOP. After you've rescanned, carefully cursor to the position you wan the meta variables to be and type them in. Then save the screen as usual. 敖陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳 How do I set up doors (online games)? 青陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳 With AdeptXBBS, you can run any door game that can use the DOOR.SYS drop file. If you have a door that must use something other than a DOOR.SYS, you can find a drop file converter to create the desired drop file that you need. In order to be able to run doors with AdeptXBBS, you need to install Ray Gwinn's SIO drivers for OS/2. These are much better drivers than the ones that come with originally with OS/2. The latest SIO drivers can be found on most OS/2 BBSes and on the following FTP sites: adeptsoft.com hobbes.nmsu.edu ftp.cdrom.com After you have installed the SIO drivers, you should have the original OS/2 drivers commented out in your CONFIG.SYS. You also need the undocumented '-' switch configured. This will allow you to share comports with Adept and the door games. Here is a sample CONFIG.SYS snippet: DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\ANSI.SYS REM DEVICE=C:\OS2\BOOT\COM.SYS REM DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VCOM.SYS REM ......... Ray Gwinn's SIO Com drivers ........ DEVICE=C:\SIO\SIO.SYS (1, 3F8, 4,-) DEVICE=C:\SIO\VSIO.SYS DEVICE=C:\SIO\VX00.SYS In the above example, you see that the OS/2 drivers have been commented out and that the '-' is included. Please refer to the documentation supplied with the SIO drivers for more information on installing them. After you have the SIO drivers installed, you can set up your doors. In the next examples, we'll walk thru setting up the popular TradeWars door. First, obtain the door archive. The latest TradeWars door can be found under the name: 2002V2B8.EXE from various BBSes and FTP sites. Create a separate directory for each of your doors. Unarchive TradeWars into it's own directory and run the install program. Configure it to your own system specifications. Remembering to include any locked baud info. Set this door up to look for the DOOR.SYS drop file. Create the following batch file and place it in your \Adept directory. CD \doors\tw copy \adept\system\line%1\door.sys tw2002 NOEMS del door.sys CD \adept Edit this example to reflect the path to your door game. Next, create or edit your door.menu and place it in the \Adept\Menus directory. Here is an example: \r,0,door.asc,Online Games,4 ? ,51 ,,Commands.Asc,0 - ,2 ,Return to previous menu,,0 G ,1 ,Goodbye/Logoff,LogOff.Menu,0 ~ ,1000,Goodbye/Logoff,LogOff.Menu,0 1 ,801,,cmd.exe /c twar.bat {LN {H0,0 2 ,801,,cmd.exe /c bre.bat {LN {H0,0 Using this example, you would start the TradeWars door by pressing 1. It would then look for the twar.bat file in your \Adept directory and if found, execute it. 敖陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳朕 Why can my users read everyone's private mail? 青陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳潰 Probably because you have the Sysop security level of this area set to 0 or a level that your regular users have. To remedy this, go into the message_area editor and into your Private Email area. Click on the Message Area Security button and edit the Sysop Security levels. It is best to set these to *YOUR* security level. 敖陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳朕 How do I set up FIDOnet? 青陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳潰 One of the greatest things about AdeptXBBS is that it containes everything (almost) that you need to run a successful FIDO node. I say 'almost' because the only thing it does not include is a nodelist compiler. There are 2 popular nodelist compilers available for OS/2. Qnode and Fastlist. I recommend Fastlist because it is....FAST! Here are the steps involved in setting up Adept for FIDO. I am assuming that you know what FIDO is, and that you already have a node number. If you do not have a node number, contact a BBS near you that carries FIDOnet echo mail and ask them who to contact in your area to get a node number. 1. Get a nodelist compiler. Read the documentation included with it, and compile your nodelist. Here is an example Fastlst.cfg config file: --------8<----- BEGIN CUT HERE -----8<--------- Priority High 31 ; FileMode StatusLog c:\Adept\Mailer\Nodelist\FastList.Log CompressCfg c:\Adept\Mailer\Nodelist\Compress.Cfg InputPath c:\Adept\Mailer\Nodelist\ ArcPath c:\Adept\Mailer\Nodelist KillAfter KillSource V7BugFix NoRedir Dial LocalValues 1-812- / 0 LocalExchanges 342 348 372 375 376 377 LocalExchanges 377 378 379 526 1-812- 1-812- 25 1- 1- 50 - 011 250 500 End MsgRem SUFAE MsgLog Redirected NullPhone MsgSize 60000 ; do not use with Dos 16 bit version !

Created it with the following format: password 1:231/1320.0 Substitute your password for for your hub's address. 2. Get a copy of the latest FidoNet nodelist. Place it in the \Adept\Mailer\Nodelist directory and compile it. 3. From the pulldown menus, configure the following: CONFIG->ACTIVE LINE->MAILER SETTINGS CONFIG->ACTIVE LINE->MAILER ADDRESSES CONFIG->BBS->MISC. PATHS / FILES (Make sure that you put all your addresses in the 5D style. For Example: 1:231/1320.0@FidoNet) 4. From the pulldown menus, EDIT->MESSAGE AREAS Add the FIDO echo areas that you want to carry. Check the ECHOMAIL, FORCE PUBLIC, and REQUIRES REAL NAME flags. Be sure to include your 5D address in the ADDR field. If you find it tedious to add many echos using the message area editor, you can directly edit the \Adept\System\Message_Areas file. 5. Create an AREA.CONTROL file and place it in your \Adept directory. Here is an example: --------8<----- BEGIN CUT HERE -----8<--------- MAKENEWAREAS IMPORTALLNETMAIL ECHO GUITAR 10 1:231/1310.0@Fidonet ECHO MUSICIAN'S_SERVICES 11 1:231/1310.0@Fidonet ECHO MUSIC_COMP_101 12 1:231/1310.0@Fidonet ECHO TABLATURE 13 1:231/1310.0@Fidonet ECHO MUSICIAN 14 1:231/1310.0@Fidonet ECHO DOORWARE 15 1:231/1310.0@Fidonet ECHO OS2BBS 16 1:231/1310.0@Fidonet ECHO ADEPTSOFT 17 1:231/1310.0@Fidonet ECHO ADEPT_SYSOP 18 1:231/1310.0@Fidonet ECHO ISYSOPS 98 1:231/1310.0@Fidonet ADDRCONTROL 1:231/1310.0@FidoNet 1,ABC TYPE2+ --------8<----- END CUT HERE -----8<--------- In the above example, you would configure all your FIDO echo areas. The numbers between the area names and the address of your hub are the message base numbers in Adept. If you are a hub to someone else, and don't want to have the echos on your system, you can set them up as PASSTHRU areas by using 0 as the message base number. 6. Create or edit your gatekpr.ctl file. Here is an example: --------8<----- BEGIN CUT HERE -----8<--------- AREAFILE AREA.CONTROL MAXDUPES 10240 NETAREA 99 PACKSIZE 65535 UNARCHIVE ARC.EXE ewn ARCHIVE ARC.EXE mwn CHECKSEENBYS IMPORTALLNETMAIL KILLBADDATES ALLOWBADAREAS PVTECHOASNET INBOUND C:\ADEPT\MAILER\PASSWORD INBOUND C:\ADEPT\MAILER\PUBLIC INBOUND C:\ADEPT\MAILER\UNLISTED OUTBOUND C:\ADEPT\MAILER\OUTBOUND_MAIL MSGDIR C:\ADEPT\MESSAGE_BASES MESSAGES C:\ADEPT\MESSAGE_BASES HOLD C:\ADEPT\MAILER\TICS FLAGSPATH C:\ADEPT\MAILER\FLAGS LOGFILE C:\ADEPT\LOGFILES\GATEKPR.LOG ADDRESS 1:231/1320.0@Fidonet ROUTE 1.*.*.*@FidoNet Hold Same ZIP.EXE -m -j ROUTE 1.231.1310.0.* Crash Same ZIP.EXE -m -j --------8<----- END CUT HERE -----8<--------- For more in depth info on the above example, refer to the ADPXBBS.DOC 7. Create an event via the CONFIG->ACTIVE LINE->EVENTS pulldown menu to scan/toss messages that you receive or are ready to send. To do this, you might want to use this mail.cmd example: Gatekpr.Exe GateKpr.Ctl A LP In the above example, the PM based GateKeeper is used with the GateKpr.Ctl file. If you wish to use the text version of GateKeeper, you can use GateKpr.Exe instead of Gatepm.Exe. Run Gatekpr.exe with the /? parameter for more info on the runtime switches. 8. Create an event via the CONFIG->ACTIVE LINE->EVENTS pulldown menu to poll your hub at a desired time. To do this you might want to use this poll.cmd example: SET XOUTBOUND=C:\Adept\Mailer\Outbound_Mail SET XNODELIST=C:\Adept\Mailer\Nodelist GS Poll Fidonet#1:231/1310 C In the above example, two environmental variables are set to reflect the path to your mailer directories. Then, GS.EXE is run with the address that you want to poll and the FLAVOR you want the packet to be. In this example, it will be CRASH mail. 9. You're ready to go! 敖陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳 How do I set up multiple FIDO style networks? 青陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳 If you have already set up your AdeptXBBS system for one network, you won't have much trouble including another one! Here are the steps necessary for doing so. 1. From the pulldown menus CONFIG->ACTIVE LINE->MAILER ADDRESSES add your other network addresses. 2. Edit your nodelist compiler to reflect the addition of another network. Here is a sample Fastlst.cfg file which is set up for FIDOnet and AdeptNet: --------8<----- BEGIN CUT HERE -----8<--------- Priority High 31 ; FileMode StatusLog c:\Adept\Mailer\Nodelist\FastList.Log CompressCfg c:\Adept\Mailer\Nodelist\Compress.Cfg InputPath c:\Adept\Mailer\Nodelist\ ArcPath c:\Adept\Mailer\Nodelist KillAfter KillSource V7BugFix NoRedir Dial LocalValues 1-812- / 0 LocalExchanges 342 348 372 375 376 377 LocalExchanges 377 378 379 526 1-812- 1-812- 25 1- 1- 50 - 011 250 500 End MsgRem SUFAE MsgLog Redirected NullPhone MsgLogArea c:\Adept\Mailer\Public\ MsgRemArea c:\Adept\Mailer\Public\ MsgSize 60000 ; do not use with Dos 16 bit version !

XMSG.EXE is a utility that comes with AdeptXBBS that allows you to pack your message areas. It is suggested that you set up a nightly or weekly event that will call XMSG. If you run XMSG.EXE at the command line without any parameters, you will get a short help file. Basically, there are several switches that tell XMSG what to do. XMSG -P [LoBd#] [HiBd#] (options) Packs out deleted messages XMSG -T [LoBd#] [HiBd#] [#mess] (options) Trim to specified # XMSG -D [LoBd#] [HiBd#] [#days] (options) Delete older than # days XMSG -R [LoBd#] [HiBd#] (PRIVATE) (options) Deletes received messages XMSG -K [LoBd#] [HiBd#] (options) Kills junk msgs by (option) criteria XMSG -U [LoBd#] [HiBd#] Untags all msgs in an area An example batch file might have: XMSG -T 1 10 100 XMSG -P 99 99 In the above example, XMSG will trim areas 1 thru 10 to 100 messages and will then pack out all deleted messages from message area 99. ________________________________________________________________________ 浜様様様様様 SECTION 3 藩様様様様様 敖陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳朕 Are there FIDO echos devoted to AdeptXBBS? 青陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳陳潰 Yes, at this time there are two echo areas devoted to AdeptXBBS.
