    **  DETAILS OF EACH SELECTION IS CONTAINED IN THE DOCUMENTATION  **


 Select Nodes for AUTO-SECURE:

      This selection allows you to pick which nodes you want AUTO-SECURE to
use for upgrading New Users.  AUTO-SECURE wil not upgrade New Users on Nodes  
that have NOT been selected.  
      
      First pick which Version of Wildcat! 4.x that you are running (Single-
Line, Multi-Line 10, or Multi-Line 250). A pop-up menu will appear. Pick the
nodes you want AUTO-SECURE run on by using the [SPACE BAR].  After you have
selected all the nodes you want press [ENTER].  You will be returned to the 
INSTALL Main Menu.
 



 Create Security Levels File:


      This is a new file with AUTO-SECURE ver 4.  It will upgrade a User to
      one (1) of five (5) different security levels dependent upon a User's 
      input. Ten (10) security Levels are available with the age option 
      enabled!  

      Enter which conference you want as the user's current conference to be
      when AUTO-SECURE ends.  Press [ENTER].

      Enter the security level to upgrade the user too, if they are under the 
      age that was defined in the .CFG file creation.  Leave blank if you 
      opted not to use the age option.  Press [ENTER].

      Enter the security level to upgrade the user to if they are over or 
      equal to the age that was defined in the .CFG file.  If you opted not
      to use the age option this is the security all users who pick this sel-
      ection will be upgraded too.  Press [ENTER].

      Enter the selection statement.  This will be presented to the user, and
      if they select it, they will be upgraded to one of the two security 
      levels above and be set to the conference you designated.  Examples:

           I am a Visiting Sysop.
           I'm interested in 3 SHEETS Software.
           I'm interested in Computer Programming.
           I'm Active Duty / Retired military.
           I represent Dow Jones Industrial.

               The only limits here are space and your imagination.

      You can repeat the above process up to five times to create a maximum of
      five selections to present to your new users.
 
 






 Create Configuration File:

   You will be asked to provide seven (8) pieces of information;  
      
      First, enter the age limit for security levels.  THIS DOES NOT STOP 
      USERS THAT ARE UNDER THIS AGE LIMIT FROM USING YOUR BOARD OR PREVENT 
      AUTO-SECURE FROM UPGRADING THESE USERS!  This Age is used to make a 
      decision to upgrade between two different security levels.  I use this 
      to option to restrict access to some of my Echo Conferences to abide 
      by the echo's rules.  I have two identical Security Profiles except 
      for conference access, one for Teenagers and one for Adults.  This 
      feature could also be used to limit access to Adult Areas of your 
      system.  If you want to disable this feature enter a [0].
      
   The Next three (3) pieces of information will be security levels:      

      Enter the security level for uers that their phone number matches the 
      numbers of a current user on your BBS.  IE: DUPEUSER


      Enter the security level for users that cannot verify their login info.
      If they enter wrong birthdate, phone numbers or password. IE: TEMPUSER

      Enter the secuity level for users that enter know bad phone numbers.
      AUTO-SECURE, when NOT using Freeform phone numbers will check for known 
      bad phone numbers.  IE: BADUSER

      *** Whatever you call the above security levels, make sure they match
          exactly what you have defined in MAKEWILD as AUTO-SECURE does not
          verify them.
      
      Next you will be asked to provide a full path and file name for AUTO-
      SECURE's log file.   I.E.  C:\WILDCAT\AUTOSEC.LOG
      I recommend not using the BBS Activity Log.  It's much easier to keep 
      track of New Users if you keep a separate log.

      You will be asked to provide the full path and file name for a Hello 
      or Bulletin Screen.  I.E.  C:\WILDCAT\DISP\HELLO3.BBS

      You will then be asked to provide a HEADING for Security Levels File 
      we are going to create.   I.E.  Select your Main Interest in this BBS.
                                      Select the Company you Represent.
                                      I've called this BBS because ...

 
 Configure LOGON.WCX File:

 This only needs one piece of information:  The full path to AUTOSEC.WCX
 including the trailing backslash!  IE:  C:\AUTOSEC4\
 
 
 Are you going to run AUTO-SECURE via the LOGON.WCX [Y/N]?

      The last question is a simple YES/NO question.  AUTO-SECURE need to
      know if you are going to run it from the LOGON.WCX file that came with
      AUTO-SECURE so it can present your HELLO Screens and other logon 
      screens.  Just answer [Y] or [N] to this question.
