<h3>1.9. Safe cracker door.</h3>
<h3>1.9. Sysop paging</h3>
<p>
This is a door I found in RapidBBS, it is a simple number guessing game.
For sysop chat a protocol is used to communicate with the mbtask daemon which
has a very simple IRC like chatserver. For sysop/user chat a forced channel
with the name #sysop is used.
<pre>
<strong>Digit 1 </strong>The first digit to guess
<strong>Digit 2 </strong>The second digit to guess
<strong>Digit 3 </strong>The third digit to guess
<strong>Max trys </strong>The maximum number of trys per day
<strong>Max numb </strong>The highest number to guess
<strong>Num gen </strong>Automatic number generation
<strong>Prize </strong>The prize to win
<strong>Welcome </strong>The welcome file to display
<strong>Opened </strong>The file to display to the winner

<h3>1.10. Sysop paging</h3>
<p>
For sysop chat we use a program that will connect to the users tty. This is
not a nice solution because it will not work over a network, but at least
it works.
<pre>
<strong>Ext. chat </strong>External chat program, not in use!
<strong>Chat device </strong>The device where the sysop is called (beeped)
<strong>Call script </strong>For future use
<strong>Page length </strong>The length of a page in seconds
<strong>Page times </strong>Maximum number of times a user may page the sysop
<strong>Sysop area </strong>Message from user to Sysop area number
<strong>Ask reason </strong>Ask reason for chat, this will be logged
<strong>Use Extern </strong>Use external chat
<strong>Log Chat </strong>Log the chat conversation
<strong>Prompt Chk. </strong>Check at menu prompts for Sysop breaking in
<strong>Freeze Time </strong>Freeze users time during chat
<strong>Sunday..Saturday </strong>The times the Sysop is normal available
