<h3>Introduction</H3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
Unlike many other bbs packages, for each node you need only one record. If you
|
|
have a relation with a node for one network with costsharing, and other
|
|
networks without costsharing you need two records for that node. For each node
|
|
you can setup the aka's, mail, files and session handshake. There are eight
|
|
screens for each node.
|
|
<p> <p>
|
|
|
|
<H3>Edit general setup</H3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This screen has the general information for the node. The contact info fields are
|
|
just for private use, these fields are only used in this screen. The Outbox dir is for
|
|
files to sent to the node, all file you put in there will be sent to the remote if
|
|
user mbse has read/write access to the file. Only real files are allowed, not symlinks etc.
|
|

operator. The name entered here is used in Areamgr and Filemgr messages etc.</td></tr>

everything to this node over the internet. Note that to force calling this node
|
|
