`
` Introduction
` ------------
` What Is A Bulletin Board System?
` --------------------------------
` A Bulletin Board System or BBS gives users an
`opportunity to
` exchange information over great distances. Certainly, this
`can be
` easily achieved by nearly any Postal Service, but PCBoard
`makes it
` even easier. Information is transmitted over phone
`lines to
` anywhere in the world where another BBS exists. Originally,
`BBS's
` transmitted few messages with little accuracy. Today,
`however,
`
`(cid:26)
`
`

`

` BBS's are used in offices, homes, schools, and governments.
`They
` transfer computerized files to and from any location;
`deliver
` messages in a matter of minutes, perhaps seconds; and
`maintain
` security for organizations that handle sensitive information.
`They
` represent a new technology born of a new communication age.
`
` General PCBoard Requirements
` ----------------------------
` PCBoard 14.5 has been written in ASSEMBLY language and
`"C" to
` expedite software functions. Following is a general
`list of
` requirements:
` þ DOS 3.1 (or higher) or 100% Compatible Environment
` þ 8088 Computer or Higher (286, 386 etc.)
` þ 1.5 Megabytes or Greater of Hard Disk Space
` þ 320 Kilobytes of Free Memory
` PCBoard is not limited to these features, however. To
`extend the
` line support of one computer, the SysOp may use slave
`cards or
` multitasking software (discussed later).
`
` Internal vs. External Use
` -------------------------
` Internal. PCBoard can be used within the office to share
`files,
` send and receive messages and memorandums, build
`conferences for
` select individuals, and maintain security specific
`information.
` PCBoard can replace rows of filing cabinets, heaps of
`manilla
` folders, and rolls of sticky labels. Normally, in
`house
` communication is accomplished by physically linking computers
`in a
` network. Common network software includes LANtastic, Novell,
`and
` 3COM. Of course, PCBoard need not use a network. Instead,
`it may
` run in a stand alone or multitasking environment.
` External. Many times, PCBoard is extended beyond the
`office to
`
`(cid:27)
`
`

`

` permit communication between computers several hundred or
`thousand
` miles apart. The computers become linked via MODEM. A
`MODEM
` (MOdulator-DEModulator) converts data into computer signals
`that can
` be sent by telephone lines to any computer with another MODEM.
`By
` this method,PCBoard supports the same features as an in
`house
` system.
`
` 6
`
` When supplied with multi-tasking software or slave cards,
`each
` computer may utilize more than one phone line.
` As a result,
`one
` computer may receive two or more different callers and each
`caller
` would operate a different session of PCBoard. There are
`limitations
` however. Since each phone line requires its own Communication
`Port
` and Interrupt, configuring more than two lines on one
`machine is
` difficult (See Multitasking and Slave Card Operation).

`
` Installation
` ============
`
` General Information
` -------------------
` A SysOp can install PCBoard from floppy disks or a hard
`drive or
` network. Furthermore, a conversion process has been
`added to
` PCBoard to facilitate more expeditious upgrades from
`previous
` versions of PCBoard.
`
`(cid:20)(cid:19)
`
`

`

` Floppy Disk to Hard Drive Installation
` --------------------------------------
` A SysOp should use the following procedures to install or
`upgrade
` PCBoard. During an upgrade, the INSTALL program will only
`copy
` files necessary for the upgrade. All others will remain
`untouched.
` Additionally, the following installation procedures will
`commence
` from the PCBoard Distribution Disks to a chosen hard drive.
` 1. Insert the PCBoard Distribution Disk #1 in drive A:.
` 2. Change to the root directory of the hard drive on
`which
` PCBoard will be installed.
` 3. Type A:INSTALL at the DOS prompt.
` 4. Follow the instructions displayed on the monitor.
`
` Hard Disk or Network Installation
` ---------------------------------
` A SysOp should use the following procedures to install or
`upgrade
` PCBoard from a hard disk or network. During an upgrade, the
`INSTALL
` program will only copy files necessary for the upgrade. All
`others
` will remain untouched.
` 1. Make a subdirectory on the hard disk or network drive.
` 2. Copy files from the PCBoard Distribution Disks to
`that
` subdirectory.
` 3. Change to the root directory of the hard drive on
`which
` PCBoard will be installed.
` 4. Type INSTALL at the DOS prompt.
` 5. Follow the instructions displayed on the monitor.
`
`(cid:20)(cid:20)
`
`

`

`
` Manual Upgrade Procedures
`
` General Information
` -------------------
` Instead of using PCBoard's automated upgrade procedures, a
`SysOp may
` want to upgrade previous PCBoard versions manually.
`
` Manual Upgrade Instructions
` ---------------------------
` The SysOp can follow the instructions below to upgrade
`versions
` 14.0, 14.1, and 14.2.
`
` 1. Run BOARD.BAT once to start PCBoard. Once
`inside the
` PCBoard environment, immediately exit. This
`simple
` process enables PCBSetup to determine past
`configurations
` such as SET PCB= statements.
` 2. Run PCBSetup. The utility will recognize the
`pre-14.5
` PCBOARD.DAT file and ask to convert it. Answer YES.
`Once
` inside the PCBSetup environment, press ESC and
`save the
` new PCBOARD.DAT file.
` 3. Type MKTXT145 /UPGRADE C:\PCB\GEN\PCBTEXT. This
`procedure
` reads the existing PCBTEXT file, adds fields for 14.5,
`and
` saves the new file. A SysOp can contact the Salt
`Air BBS
` and download updated multilingual PCBTEXT files.
`Although
` this is recommended, the SysOp can utilize the
`MKTXT145
`
`(cid:20)(cid:21)
`
`

`

` utility to translate newly added English fields.
` 4. The PCBoard 14.5 executable is called PCB145.EXE
`instead
` of PCBOARD.EXE which previous versions used. As a
`result,
` edit the BOARD.BAT file. Replace the line that
`reads
` pcboard with pcb145.
` 5. Type PCBSM /UPGRADE which reads the existing USERS
`file
` and creates a USERS.INF file. Since the USERS file
`does
` not change, Third Party Applications can function
`normally
` with 14.5.
` 6. Copy the new HLP* files into the \PCB\HELP
`subdirectory.
` 7. Copy the new BRDM and BRDMG files into
`\PCB\GEN or
` customize existing menu files.
`
` 9
`
` 8. Edit the PCBPROT.DAT file to include the
`following
` internal batch settings.

`

` 9. Edit the PCBRZ.BAT file to reflect batch uploads via
`DSZ.
` Place the line SET DSZLOG=PCBDSZ.LOG inside the
`BOARD.BAT
` file.

` 10. Remove all environment switches from the BOARD.BAT
`with
` the exception of /NMT. These environment
`switches are
` contained in PCBSetup and new, more versatile
`switches
` have been added.
` 11. Read the file called FEATURES.NEW found on
`the
` Distribution Disk. It lists, as the name implies,
`all
` newly added features to the PCBoard 14.5 software.
`
` After installation is complete, the SysOp can remove the
`following
` files used in previous versions of PCBoard.

` User Busy
` ---------
` When a local user enters PCBoard, other callers are
`unable to
` remotely access the system. Instead, the caller is met with a
`busy
` signal until the SysOp logs out of PCBoard.
`
` User Not Busy
` -------------
` When a local user enters PCBoard, other callers may remotely
`access
` the system. The caller receives normal rings. The SysOp,
`on the
` other hand, who uses the system hears the caller rings
`indicating
`
`(cid:20)(cid:28)
`
`

`

` someone is trying to access the system. The caller is not
`connected
` until the SysOp logs out of PCBoard.
`
` SysOp Busy
` ----------
` When chosen, the SysOp immediately logs into the system under
`his or
` her name and password. The SysOp local password is
`indicated in
` PCBSetup under SysOp Information. A caller is met with a
`busy
` signal until the SysOp logs out of PCBoard.
`
` SysOp Not Busy
` --------------
` The SysOp immediately logs into the system under his or her
`name and
` password. The caller receives normal rings. The SysOp, on
`the
` other hand, who uses the system hears the caller rings
`indicating
` someone is trying to access the system. The caller is not
`connected
` until the SysOp logs out of PCBoard.
`
` DOS Busy
` --------
` PCBoard is terminated and the SysOp is returned to DOS.
`Callers are
` met with a busy signal and are unable to remotely access the
`system.
` Only when the SysOp executes the BOARD.BAT file are callers
`allowed
` access.
`
` DOS Not Busy
` ------------
` PCBoard is terminated and the SysOp is returned to DOS. The
`caller
` receives normal rings, but the SysOp never hears the rings.
`Only
` when the SysOp executes the BOARD.BAT file are callers
`allowed
` access.
`
` Printer
` -------
` ON = Any information that is sent to the Caller's Log
`
`(cid:21)(cid:19)

`

` is also sent to the printer. This normally
` includes all user activities, file transfers,
` DOOR entries, etc.
` OFF= Though all user activities are still sent to the
` Caller's Log, the information is not printed.
`
` 14
`
` Page Bell
` ---------
` ON = When a user implements the Operator Page command, the
` SysOp hears a beep for 30 seconds. He or she may then
` respond or ignore the page. The SysOp may specify in
` PCBSetup--Option #2 the hours he or she wishes the
` bell to be active.
` OFF = When a user implements the Operator Page command, he
` or she is told the SysOp is unavailable for CHAT.
` PCBoard, however, asks the user if he or she wants to
` leave a Comment to the SysOp.
