WebBBS13.zip Version 1.3, freeware demo version 5/30/97 A Way Cool Web Server for BBS's! Welcome to WebBBS, a terrific NEW feature to have on your BBS. This software turns your BBS into a web site, offering your callers SVGA graphics, stereo sound, and a www internet look and feel. Users may upload their web pages to you and you could place them in the proper directory.. so that their web pages could be available along with yours. We have included a few demo web pages. Feel free to edit them, change them as much as you like. You can modify them with DOS EDIT or with Windows Notepad or any other text editor. ****************************** INSTALLATION ******************************* This software installs as if it were a door program or door game. On our TAG 2.7 BBS, we unzipped webbbs13.zip into a c:\bbs\webbbs directory. We created a batch file called webbbs.bat in c:\bbs using DOS EDIT, the file looks like this: copy c:\bbs\door.sys c:\bbs\webbbs cd c:\bbs\webbbs webbbs13.exe cd c:\bbs Examine webbbs13.ini with DOS EDIT or Window's Notepad or any other text editor. Webbbs13.ini stores the configuration of the zmodem protocol engine. It looks like this: zmodem protocol driver c:\bbs\dsz sz Change c:\bbs\dsz sz to: Using dsz with COM port 2, modem connect speed 38400 baud c:\bbs\dsz port 2 speed 38400 sz Using dsz with COM port 2, default baud c:\bbs\dsz port 2 sz As of this writing, DSZ might not be compatible with Windows 95. CEXYZ is reported to be compatible with Windows95 using Winfossil but requires x00 fossil driver. Using CEXYZ with COM 4, modem connect speed 14400 baud cexyz /b14400 /p4 /sz Using CEXYZ with the default COM port, modem connect speed 14400 baud cexyz /b14400 /sz If you are having trouble getting WebBBS to send HTML files this zmodem configuration line is probably the cause. Read the documentation that accompanies your zmodem driver and make certain you are writing the correct COM port, modem speed, and path (did you spell everything correctly?) into webbbs13.ini. ********************************* NOTES *********************************** Since WebBBS13.zip is a freeware demo version we limited it as follows: You may modify the example HTML files any way you want but you should not change the file names. For example, hyper.htm is our web page. You may rewrite it and make it your personal web page but must keep the name hyper.htm. E-mail is disabled in this freeware version. The registered version does not have these limitations. ****************************** WANT TO HELP? ****************************** Please stop by our BBS or website, we love to have visitors. Please tell us how you like webBBS and if there are any additional features that you would like to see. ********************************* FREEWARE ******************************** WebBBS13.zip is freeware, please distribute freely and have fun with it. We hope that you enjoy this as much as we have. *************************** THE REGISTERED VERSION ************************ WebBBS23.zip is a more powerful version of webBBS13.zip. With webBBS23.zip you can have hundreds, possibly thousands of web pages, your friends can build their own web pages, upload them to your BBS and you can display them in addition to your own web pages. WebBBS23.zip supports images (gifs and jpegs), stereo sound, colored backgrounds, textured backgrounds, ftp file transfer and email between webBBS users. WebBBS23.zip costs US $ 9.95 or the equivalent in any major foreign currency.
