Subj: [how-tos]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The credit pool news file is&lt;br /&gt;
automatically generated by the&lt;br /&gt;
midnight automaint module if you have&lt;br /&gt;
it included in the list of modules to&lt;br /&gt;
run at midnight. The news file must be&lt;br /&gt;
manually entered into the list to get&lt;br /&gt;
it started. After that it's&lt;br /&gt;
automatically updated by automaint.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you first created the grf2 rel&lt;br /&gt;
file you defined how many records to&lt;br /&gt;
make it. That file does not grow&lt;br /&gt;
larger as do most rel files. It&lt;br /&gt;
maintains itself at however many&lt;br /&gt;
records you defined. Each record is&lt;br /&gt;
one entry on the wall. If you think&lt;br /&gt;
there are too many records the only&lt;br /&gt;
way to change it is to delete the rel&lt;br /&gt;
file and start over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The s.login files are three. s.login 0&lt;br /&gt;
is for ascii users s.login 1 is for&lt;br /&gt;
Commodore c/g users and s.login 3 is&lt;br /&gt;
for ansi users. The number at the end&lt;br /&gt;
of the s.login file is related to the&lt;br /&gt;
nl variable which is set during login&lt;br /&gt;
as defined in the users config file.&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to create a cg screen for&lt;br /&gt;
Commodore cg users it should use the&lt;br /&gt;
number 1 at the end of the s.login&lt;br /&gt;
file. You could add additional screens&lt;br /&gt;
to be seen during login with different&lt;br /&gt;
filenames which either include the nl&lt;br /&gt;
variable in them or not. If that's the&lt;br /&gt;
way you go you would have to edit the&lt;br /&gt;
basic file either +.lo or +/lo.on to&lt;br /&gt;
display them by filename.&lt;br /&gt;

Subj: [more how-to]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To add subs there are multiple steps&lt;br /&gt;
to do. Use the SM (sysop menu) Editor&lt;br /&gt;
Utils to Run Reledit. In reledit&lt;br /&gt;
add the sub to the subs list then edit&lt;br /&gt;
the Sig you want the sub to be in&lt;br /&gt;
(also in reledit) by adding the new&lt;br /&gt;
sub to the SB list. After that exit&lt;br /&gt;
out of reledit back to the Sysop Menu&lt;br /&gt;
go back into Editor Utils and use the&lt;br /&gt;
Convert Sigs option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You probably did everything above&lt;br /&gt;
except the Convert Sigs routine.&lt;br /&gt;
That's why your new subs are not&lt;br /&gt;
appearing in the directory when you go&lt;br /&gt;
into the SB section.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Press RETURN&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 S :Stop   P :Pause&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From: X-TEC.(UID#0)&lt;br /&gt;

Subj: [grf/grf2]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reason the serial version of grf&lt;br /&gt;
was not working for incoming messages&lt;br /&gt;
is because that line is rem'd out in&lt;br /&gt;
NMauto and the grf2 version is active.&lt;br /&gt;
I like the grf2 (rel) version more&lt;br /&gt;
because it's self maintaining. When&lt;br /&gt;
you first run it in local mode it&lt;br /&gt;
creates the rel file and asks yo how&lt;br /&gt;
many records you want it to use. I set&lt;br /&gt;
mine to 20 and the grf2 wall will&lt;br /&gt;
never go above that number of messages&lt;br /&gt;
in the file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reason BBS Server works better for&lt;br /&gt;
file transfers is because it uses&lt;br /&gt;
hardware handshaking whereas tcpser&lt;br /&gt;
does not. There's only one guy I know&lt;br /&gt;
of who has been able to get file&lt;br /&gt;
transfers (in the network) to work in&lt;br /&gt;
tcpser and that's Mark Honey aka&lt;br /&gt;
DEADMAN sysop of Remote CPU BBS.&lt;br /&gt;
The down side of that is his board can&lt;br /&gt;
only connect to mine for network&lt;br /&gt;
transfers. When my board tries to call&lt;br /&gt;
his it won't complete the connection.&lt;br /&gt;
It's ok in Image 1.2 because transfers&lt;br /&gt;
are bi-directional but in 2.0 they are&lt;br /&gt;
not so it wouldn't work with 2.0 very&lt;br /&gt;
well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Press RETURN&lt;br /&gt;
