• BBS door config copier for multi-node setups

    From Eric Oulashin@1:298/7 to All on Tue Feb 1 14:50:11 2011
    Hi all -

    Many BBS doors recommend creating a separate configuration file for each node, and often, the only difference is the path to the drop file. Lately, as I have been adding doors to my BBS, I've been getting tired of creating all of the configuration files; so, I wrote a utility program to help with that. With this program, you can create one node's configuration file, and the program will create the others so you don't have to create the others manually. I thought other sysops might find this useful too.. This utility can be downloaded here:
    ftp://digdist.bbsindex.com/bbs/BBSUTILS/DNCC10.zip

    It is a command-line tool, and the archive inclues versions for Win32 and DOS, as well as source code so it can be compiled on other platforms.
