Parms HELP for  BBSERV.EXE (c) 1991 Freeman M. Crosby W1NPR  (SRQLAN)

1.BBSERV.EXE is a remote file server for use with the AA4RE BBS programs
  from V2.11 + (c) 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991 by  H. Roy Engenhausen.
2.Setup is easy as it reads parms.bb for all it's information, you must
  add a few comment lines to it to give it the name you want it to respond
  to and the directories you want to use & their paths.
3.Add to parms.bb at the top of list using comment lines (*) BE EXACT !
*  Select your own name for your server installation or use BBSERV 
   The server will respond to DBSERV, BBSERV & REQFIL in addition to this
   one, if you specialize in MODS, HUMOR, etc. you may use that. See the
   special file on the REQFIL command REQFIL.DOC 

*  ;dih is a shadow directory       ( SHD ) ( DBSERV/BBSERV compatability ) 
*  ;dip is a public directory       ( PUB )
*  ;dir is a read-only directory or ( PRI )
*  ;dis is the directory description & must be included for proper operation
*  ;dio is the "OWNER" of the database ( Put your call here for now )
*  If you include a directory as in the first example called srv with the
   exact parameters you will be able to receive the BBSERV data from the
   main BBSERV server at W1NPR and your server files will be updated for 
   you. To be updated in this fashion send a (P) message to BBSERV@W1NPR
   Subject? REGISTER SRV    you will be notified of any changes thereafter.
*  The setserve.exe program will create any of the directories needed to
   operate with the needed subdirectories if they don't exist & report to 
   you any errors if you answer "Y" to create directories. It's a good 
   idea to say "Y" anyway.

********* Notice Database names should be limited to 5 letters !!!! ******

  Follows an example : DO NOT COPY THIS FILE ! use your own directories !
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------

;server_name = MYSERV

;bbserv_dir = c:\bs\

;dir srv = c:\bbs\srv\
;dis srv = Files related to the developement of BBSERV.EXE
;dio srv = W1NPR

;dih mods = c:\mods\kj6fy\
;dis mods = Radio modifications 
;dio mods = kj6fy

;dip rose = c:\bbs\rose\
;dis md2 = Files related to the rose switch
;dio srv = W1NPR

;you may have up to 50 of these above --------------------------------------
;Then parms.bb continues below etc.

  language_list = A
  name          = Free
  location      = Englewood FL

4.Directories may be either ones you normally use or ones only for the server
  and should be at the top of the file, the format is important. This leads
  the server to the proper directory from the alias request in the message.
  Run SETSERVE.EXE and follow it's help files

5.You *** MUST *** have a \UPL\ subdirectory in each "PUBLIC" directory for
  uploaded files. It is not mentioned in PARMS.BB but you will have to
  have it or an error message will be generated. This lets you screen all
  files available to users. A PUT Dir command with no filename will put a
  file in the "PUBLIC" directory as Filename.ext  users CALL.TXT
** This is done for you if you answer "Y" to create directories in setserve.

5.You must edit your trailer (.TRL) and reply (.REP)  messages to suit your
  own requirements.
  These reside in your bbserv_dir directory, BBSERV gets the remaining paths
  from parms.bb using setserve.exe 

6.It runs as a server command from wakeup.bb IE: ==/==/== ==:15 EL BBSERV.EXE
  Make sure you specify the whole filename.ext & path if used above !

7.BBSERV alters the backup msg.bb file and then the EL command loads it into
  AA4RE when finished.

8.Questions may be sent to BBSERV@W1NPR Subject? INPUT  Msg? Your text
  The server will reply when received & file the message for review.

9. Thanks for using BBSERV.EXE, 73 Free W1NPR >>
