-GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
-
-Version 2, June 1991
-
-Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
-59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307, USA
-
-Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
-of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
-
-Preamble
-
-The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to
-share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended
-to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure
-the software is free for all its users. This General Public License applies
-to most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program
-whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation
-software is covered by the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You
-can apply it to your programs, too.
-
-When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our
-General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom
-to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you
-wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you
-can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that
-you know you can do these things.
-
-To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to
-deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These
-restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute
-copies of the software, or if you modify it.
-
-For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or
-for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You
-must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you
-must show them these terms so they know their rights.
-
-We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2)
-offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
-and/or modify the software.
-
-Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that
-everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If
-the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its
-recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any
-problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors'
-reputations.
-
-Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We
-wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will
-individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program
-proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be
-licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
-
-The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification
-follow.
-
-TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
-
-0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice
-placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms
-of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such
-program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program
-or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work
-containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with
-modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter,
-translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each
-licensee is addressed as "you".
-
-Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered
-by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program
-is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its
-contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been
-made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the
-Program does.
-
-1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code
-as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
-appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and
-disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this
-License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of
-the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.
-
-You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you
-may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
-
-2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it,
-thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such
-modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you
-also meet all of these conditions:
-
-   * a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating
-     that you changed the files and the date of any change.
-
-   * b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
-     whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part
-     thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties
-     under the terms of this License.
-
-   * c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when
-     run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use
-     in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including
-     an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty
-     (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may
-     redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user
-     how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself
-     is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your
-     work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
-
-These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable
-sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be
-reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then
-this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you
-distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections
-as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of
-the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other
-licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part
-regardless of who wrote it.
-
-Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your
-rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise
-the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works
-based on the Program.
-
-In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with
-the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage
-or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this
-License.
-
-3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under
-Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1
-and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
-
-   * a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source
-     code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2
-     above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
-
-   * b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years,
-     to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of
-     physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable
-     copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the
-     terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for
-     software interchange; or,
-
-   * c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to
-     distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only
-     for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in
-     object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with
-     Subsection b above.)
-
-The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making
-modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all
-the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface
-definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and
-installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source
-code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in
-either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel,
-and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that
-component itself accompanies the executable.
-
-If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to
-copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
-source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code,
-even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with
-the object code.
-
-4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as
-expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy,
-modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically
-terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received
-copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
-terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
-
-5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed
-it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the
-Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you
-do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the
-Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of
-this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
-distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.
-
-6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
-Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original
-licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms
-and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the
-recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible
-for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
-
-7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
-infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
-conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
-otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
-excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so
-as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any
-other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute
-the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit
-royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies
-directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both
-it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the
-Program.
-
-If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
-particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and
-the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
-
-It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents
-or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims;
-this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free
-software distribution system, which is implemented by public license
-practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of
-software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent
-application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or
-she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a
-licensee cannot impose that choice.
-
-This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a
-consequence of the rest of this License.
-
-8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain
-countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original
-copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an
-explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so
-that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded.
-In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the
-body of this License.
-
-9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
-the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be
-similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
-address new problems or concerns.
-
-Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
-specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
-later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
-either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
-Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
-this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
-Foundation.
-
-10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs
-whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for
-permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software
-Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make
-exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of
-preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of
-promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
-
-NO WARRANTY
-
-11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR
-THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
-OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
-PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
-OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
-MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO
-THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM
-PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
-CORRECTION.
-
-12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
-WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
-REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
-INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
-OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
-LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR
-THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
-PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
-POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
-
-END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
-How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
-
-If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible
-use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software
-which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
-
-To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to
-attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the
-exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the "copyright"
-line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
-
-one line to give the program's name and an idea of what it does.
-Copyright (C) 19yy  name of author
-
-This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
-modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License
-as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2
-of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
-
-This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
-but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
-MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
-GNU General Public License for more details.
-
-You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
-along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
-Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307, USA.
-
-Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
-
-If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when
-it starts in an interactive mode:
-
-Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19yy name of author
-Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details
-type `show w'.  This is free software, and you are welcome
-to redistribute it under certain conditions; type `show c'
-for details.
-
-The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
-parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may be
-called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
-mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
-
-You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
-school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
-necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
-
-Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright
-interest in the program `Gnomovision'
-(which makes passes at compilers) written
-by James Hacker.
-
-signature of Ty Coon, 1 April 1989
-Ty Coon, President of Vice
-
-This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
-proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
-consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
-library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General Public
-License instead of this License.

-unauthorized access to your host system.</p>
-  
-<h3>Printing messages</h3>
-  
-<p>Citadel/UX can send messages to a printer, or just about anywhere
-else in your system.  The variable <tt>PRINTCMD</tt> in <tt>citadel.rc</tt>

-</pre>
-  
-<p>...that would add line numbers, then paginate, then print on the

-to save copies of important messages in a textfile.  Again, this is probably

-

-</pre>
-  
-<p>The setup program will guide you through a simple configuration
-procedure. It will ask you what directory to place your data files in --
-the default is the current directory, which is usually the sensible thing
-to select.  If you want to run more than one instance of Citadel on the same
-host, however, you can specify a different directory here -- just remember
-to specify the directory name again when you start up the server later on.</p>
-  
-<p><tt>setup</tt> will then shut down the Citadel service if it is
-found to be running.</p>
-  
-<p>You will then be prompted for the name of the system administrator.
-This is not merely a cosmetic option -- when you log in to your system a
-little while from now, you'll log in with this name, and it will automatically
-assign your account the highest access level.</p>
-  
-<p>Next, you will be prompted for the User ID of the Citadel account

 upgrading or reconfiguring an existing system, the existing value will be
 preserved.</p>
-  
-<p>Then you will be prompted for a server port number.  This is the

-<p>The preferred method of starting the Citadel server is to place
-an entry in your /etc/inittab file.  This will conveniently bring the server
-up when your  system is up, and terminate it gracefully when your system
-is shutting down.   The exact syntax for your system may vary, but here's
-an entry that could be used on a Linux system:</p>
-  
-<pre>
-cit:2345:respawn:/usr/local/citadel/citserver -h/usr/local/citadel -t/dev/tty9 -x3
-</pre>
-  
-<p>In this example, we've chosen debugging level 3, and have the
-trace stuff output to one of the virtual consoles.  It's important to remember
-to turn off any getty that is set up on that virtual console, if you do this.
- After making this change, the command <tt>init q</tt> works on most systems
-to tell init to re-read the file.  If in doubt, just reboot the computer.</p>
-  
-<h3>Logging in for the first time</h3>
-  
-<p>At this point, your system is ready to run. Run the <tt>citadel</tt>
-program from the shell and log in as a new user.  NOTE: the first user account
-to be created will automatically be set to access level 6 (Aide).  This overcomes
-some obvious logistical problems - normally, Aide access is given by another
-Aide, but since there aren't any on your system yet, this isn't possible.</p>
-  
-<h3>Welcoming new users</h3>
-  
-<p>Sometimes you might decide that you want a welcome message (or
-several different messages) automatically mailed to new users upon their
-first login. Now there is a way to do this.  If you create a room called <tt>New
-User Greetings</tt>, and it is a <i>private</i> room (invitation-only probably 
-makes the most sense), any messages you enter into that room will automatically 
-be delivered to all new users upon registration.</p>
-  
-<p>You can put anything you want there: a welcome message, system
-policies, special information, etc.  You can also put as many messages there
-as you want to (although it really doesn't make sense to clutter new users'
-mailboxes with lots of junk).</p>
-  
+      
+<p><tt>-tTraceFile</tt> - Tell the server where to send its debug/trace output. 
+  Normally it is sent to stdout.</p>
+      
+<p><tt>-d</tt> - Run as a daemon; i.e. in the background.  This switch would 
+be necessary if you were  starting the Citadel server, for example, from an
+rc.local script (which is  not recommended, because this won't allow the server
+to automatically restart when it is shut down).</p>
+      
+<p><tt>-f</tt> - Defragment all the databases upon startup.  This isn't normally 
+necessary due to the nature of the data stored in Citadel, but the option 
+is provided in case you need it.  (Note that this only applies to GDBM installations; 
+if you are using Berkeley DB it has no effect.)</p>

-<h3>Space for adding your own client features (doors)</h3>
-  
-<p><b>Please take note!</b>  This function really represents the
-"old" way of doing things, and it doesn't fit in well with the client/server 
-paradigm.  Please consider it "deprecated" because it may be removed someday.</p>
-  
-<p>The "doorway" feature is just a generic way to add features to
-the system. I called it "Doorway" to make it resemble the doors on non-Unix
-boards, but as we all know, us Unix types don't have to write special code
-to access the modem. :-)  Anyway, when a user hits the <tt><b>*</b></tt>
-(doorway) command, Citadel does...</p>
-  
-<pre>
-USERNAME=(username); export USERNAME
-./subsystem (user-number) (screen-width) (access level)
-</pre>
-  
-<p>...so you can put whatever you want in there.  I suggest putting
-in a menu program to allow the users to pick one of a number of programs,
-etc.  Do be aware that door programs will only be available when the client
-and server programs are running on the <i>same</i> computer, and when the
-user is running the text-mode client.  Because of these restrictions, Door
-programs are being utilized less and less every day.</p>
-  
-<h3>Troubleshooting and getting help</h3>
-  
-<p>That's just about all the information you need to install the

 problem users, but instead to 'twit' them (reduce their access level to 2
 [Problem User]).   You can then 'Automatically move problem user messages
 to twit room' (answer Yes, then specify 'Name of twit room' and remember
-to create that room).  If you employ this logic, any user with level 2

-                        Citadel/UX Sysop/Aide Manual
-                 See copyright.doc for copyright information
-  
-   
- OVERVIEW
- 
-   Citadel/UX, when installed properly, will do most of its maintenance by
-itself. The message file loops upon itself forever, scrolling off old messages
-to make space for new ones. The room files work in the same way. Other types
-of maintenance can be done by cron. I have left my system unattended for long
-periods of time without any software failures. 
-   
-  The system has seven access levels. Most users are at the bottom and have no
-special privileges. Aides are selected people who have special access within
-the Citadel program. Room Aides only have this access in a certain room. 
-Preferred users can be selected by Aides for access to preferred only rooms. A
-sysop is anyone who has access to the various sysop utilities - these are in
-their own executable files, which should have their permissions set to allow
-only sysops to run them. I recommend either creating a sysops group in
-/etc/group, or using some other existing group for this purpose. 
-   
-   Aides have access to EVERY room on the system, public and private (all
-types). They also have access to commands starting with .<A>ide in addition
-to being able to delete and move messages. The system room, Aide>, is
-accessible only by those designated by aides.
-   
-   
- AIDE COMMANDS
- 
-   Aides have the following commands available to them that are not available
-to normal users. They are:
-  
- .<A>ide <E>dit room         Allows an aide to change certain parameters of
-                             the current room. Lobby>, Mail>, and Aide> may
-                             not be edited.
- .<A>ide <F>ile <D>elete     If the current room has a directory, an Aide or
-                             room Aide can delete files from the directory
-                             using this command.
- .<A>ide <F>ile <M>ove       Moves a file from the directory of the current
-                             room to the directory of another room.  If there
-                             is a file description attached, it is moved also.
- .<A>ide <F>ile <S>end...    This will send a copy of a file in the current
-                             room's directory to the directory of the same
-                             room on another system on the network.  The other
-                             system must be running Citadel/UX or another
-                             program supporting IGnet/Open file transfers.
- .<A>ide edit <I>nfo file    Creates an info file for the current room, which
-                             will be displayed to the user when any of three
-                             conditions exist: the first time the user enters
-                             the room, the next time the user enters the room
-                             after the file has been changed, and when the
-                             .<R>ead <I>nfo file command is entered.
- .<A>ide <K>ill room         Deletes the current room. Lobby>, Mail>, and
-                             Aide> may not be deleted.
- .<A>ide <L>ist management   Sets up a room as a mailing list server.
- .<A>ide <M>essage edit:     Allows you to change various system banners, such
-                             as the 'hello' logon greeting.
- .<A>ide <N>etwork sharing   Sets up sharing of a room with neighbor nodes.
- .<A>ide <P>ost              Enter a message using any user name.
- .<A>ide <R>oom <I>nvite     Invites a user to the room if it is private.
- .<A>ide <R>oom <K>ickOut    Kicks a user out of the room if it is private.
- .<A>ide <S>ystem <G>eneral  Edits global system configuration.
- .<A>ide <S>ystem <I>nternet Edits your internet settings
- .<A>ide <S>ystem <N>etwork  Configures neighbor nodes for room sharing.
- .<A>ide <T>erminate <N>ow   Immediately shut down the Citadel service.
- .<A>ide <T>erminate <S>ched Request a "scheduled shutdown" which will take
-                             place the next time zero users are logged in.
- .<A>ide <U>serEdit          Edits certain parameters of a user's account.
- .<A>ide <V>alidate newusers Lists users who have recently registered and
-                             prompts for new access levels.
- .<A>ide <W>hoKnowsRoom      Lists all users who have access to, and who have
-                             not chosen to zap, the current room.
-   
-   
-   EDITING ROOMS
-   
-   This command allows any aide to change the parameters of a room.  Go to
-the room you wish to edit and enter the .AE command.  A series of prompts will
-be displayed.  The existing parameters will be displayed in brackets; simply
-press return if you want to leave any or all of them unchanged.
- 
-Room name [IG's Fun Room]:
- 
-   ...the name of the room.
-
-Private room [Yes]? 
- 
-   ...enter Yes if you wish to restrict access to the room, or no if the room
-is to be accessible by all users.  Note that Citadel doesn't bother users
-about access to rooms every time they need to access the room.  Once a user
-gains access to a private room, it then behaves like a public room to them.
-The following four questions will only be asked if you selected Private...
-
-Accessible by guessing room name [No]?
- 
-   ...if you enter Yes, the room will not show up in users' <K>nown rooms
-listing, but if they .<G>oto the room (typing the room's full name), they
-will gain access to the room.
-
-Accessible by entering a password [No]?
-Room password [mypasswd]:  
- 
-   ...this adds an additional layer of security to the room, prompting users
-for a password before they can gain access to the room.
- 
-If you did not select guessname or passworded, then the only way users can
-access the room is if an Aide explicitly invites them to the room using the
-.<A>ide <R>oom <I>nvite user command.
-
-Cause current users to forget room [No] ? No
- 
-   Enter Yes if you wish to kick out anyone who currently has access to
-the room.
- 
-Preferred users only [No]? No
- 
-   Enter Yes if you wish to restrict the room to only users who have level 5
-(Preferred User) status (and Aides too, of course).  You should make the room
-public if you intend to do this, otherwise the two restrictions will be
-COMBINED.
- 
-Read-only room [No]? No
- 
-   If you set a room to Read-Only, then normal users will not be allowed to
-post messages in it.  Messages may only be posted by Aides, and by utility
-programs such as the networker and the "aidepost" utility.  This is useful
-in situations where a room is used exclusively for important announcements,
-or if you've set up a room to receive an Internet mailing list and posting
-wouldn't make sense.  Other uses will, of course, become apparent as the
-need arises.
-
-Now for a few other attributes...
-
-Directory room [Yes]? Yes
- 
-   ...enter Yes if you wish to associate a directory with this room.  If you
-enter Yes, you will also be prompted with the following four questions:
-
-Directory name [mydirname]: 
- 
-   ...the name of the subdirectory to put this room's files in.  The name of
-the directory created will be <your BBS directory>/files/<room dir name>.
-    
-Uploading allowed [Yes]? Yes
- 
-   ...enter Yes if users are allowed to upload to this room.
-
-Downloading allowed [Yes]? Yes
-  
-   ...enter Yes if users are allowed to download from this room.
-
-Visible directory [Yes]? Yes
-  
-   ...enter Yes if users can read the directory of this room.
-
-
-Network shared room [No]? No
-  
-   ...you can share a room over a network without setting this flag, and
-vice versa, but what this flag does is twofold:
-   1. It prevents people with no network access from entering messages here
-   2. Messages are displayed with the name of their originating system in
-      the header.
-
-Permanent room [No]? No
- 
-   ...the sysop utilities have an option to purge rooms which have not been posted
-in for two weeks.  If you wish to keep this from happening to a particular room, you
-can set this option.  (Keep in mind that Lobby>, Mail>, Aide>, any network rooms, and
-any directory rooms are automatically permanent.)
-
-
-Anonymous messages [No]? No
-Ask users whether to make messages anonymous [No]? No
-  
-   ...you can have rooms in which all messages are automatically anonymous,
-and you can have rooms in which users are prompted whether to make a message
-anonymous when they enter it.
-
-Room aide [Joe Responsible]: 
- 
-   ...on larger systems, it helps to designate a person to be responsible for
-a room.  Room Aides have access to a restricted set of Aide commands, ONLY
-when they are in the room in which they have this privilege.  They can edit
-the room, delete the room, delete and move messages, and invite or kick out
-users (if it is a private room), but they cannot perform aide commands that
-are not room-related (such as changing users access levels).
-
-Save changes (y/n)? Yes
-  
-    ...this gives you an opportunity to back out, if you feel you really
-messed things up while editing.
-
- 
-   FILE DIRECTORIES 
- 
- If you have created any directory rooms, you can attach file descriptions to
-the filenames through a special file called "filedir".  Each line contains
-the name of a file in the directory, followed by a space and then a description
-of the file, such as:
- 
- myfile.txt This is a description of my file.
- phluff A phile phull of phluff!
- 
- ...this would create file descriptions for the files 'myfile.txt' and 'phluff'
-which would be displayed along with the directory.  It should also be noted
-that when users upload files to your system, they will be prompted for file
-descriptions, which will be added to the 'filedir' file.  If one does not
-exist, it will be created.
- 
- 
-   EDITING USERS
- 
-   This command allows any aide to change certain parameters of any user's
-account. Entering this command will ask for the name of a user to edit, and
-then prompt with the user's current access level, then ask for the new one.
-  0 - Marked for deletion
-  1 - New unvalidated user
-  2 - Problem user
-  3 - User with no network privileges
-  4 - Normal user
-  5 - Preferred user
-  6 - Aide
-   
-   DELETING AND MOVING MESSAGES
-   
-   Aides have the ability to delete and move messages; however, they must have
-message prompting turned on in order to do this. After each message, the
-normal prompt appears:
-   <A>gain, <N>ext message, <S>top ->
-  Entering <D> will delete the message. A (y/n) prompt will appear to confirm
-that you really want to delete the message.
-  Entering <M> will prompt for a room to move the message to.
-     
-   
-   SYSOP UTILITIES
-   
-   There are a number of utilities which may be accessed from the shell. It
-is up to the system operator to decide which should be "sysop" utilities and
-which should be accessible to all shell users. Please see utils.doc for a
-description of these programs.
-    
-   
-   CUSTOMIZING THE HELP FILES
- 
-   The subdirectory called "help" contains your system's help files.  There's
-nothing hard-coded into the system that dictates what files should be there.
-Whenever a user types the command "<.H>elp" followed by the name of a help
-file, it displays the contents of that help file.
- 
-   The help files that come with the system, of course, are enough to guide
-a user through its operation.  But you can add, change, or remove help files
-to suit whatever is appropriate for your system. 
- 
-   Now for the fun part.  There are several strings that you can put in help
-files that will be automatically substituted with other strings.  They are:
- 
- ^nodename    = The node name of your system on a Citadel/UX network
- ^humannode   = Human-readable node name (also your node name on C86Net)
- ^fqdn        = Your system's fully-qualified domain name
- ^username    = The name of the user reading the help file
- ^usernum     = The user number of the user reading the help file
- ^sysadm      = The name of the system administraor (i.e., you)
- ^variantname = The name of the BBS software you're running
- ^bbsdir      = The directory on the host system in which you have
-                installed the Citadel system.
- 
-   So, for example, you could create a help file which looked like:
- 
-  "Lots of help, of course, is available right here on ^humannode.  Of
-course, if you still have trouble, you could always bug ^sysadm about it!"
-   
-

- UPGRADING AN EXISTING CITADEL/UX INSTALLATION
- ---------------------------------------------
- 
- The process by which you will upgrade an older version of Citadel/UX to the
-current one depends on which version you have installed.
- 
-  
- 
- Version 1.xx, 2.xx, or 3.xx
- ---------------------------
- 
- Upgrading from these versions is no longer supported.  Sorry.
- 
- 
- 
- Version 4.xx, 5.0x, or 5.1x
- ---------------------------
- 
- Obtain the "export5" utility from any FTP site which carries Citadel.  This
-package contains instructions on how to 'export' your old databases, and then
-'import' them into Citadel/UX 5.54.
- 
- NOTE: if you have any of these versions installed, you must first upgrade
-to Citadel/UX v5.54, and then upgrade from 5.54 to the latest version.  The
-file formats for 5.60 have changed drastically, and it is unfeasible to build
-a one-step migration path.
- 
- 
-  
- Version 5.50 thru 5.69
- ----------------------
- 
- Upgrading from 5.50 and up is easy.  Unpack the source and run the
-configure script using "--with-prefix=/your/citadel/directory" just like you
-had done for the previous version.  After the compile is finished, shut down
-the running copy of citserver and do a "make install-exec".  This command
-installs the new programs without overwriting any of your data files, system
-banners, or anything else.
- 
- 
- 
- 
- All versions up to 5.69
- -----------------------
- 
- After you upgrade, you MUST run "setup" before starting citserver!  If you do
-not do so, the server will notice the older version stamp on your data files
-and refuse to run.  Run setup, then start citserver.
-  
-  
-  
- Versions 5.70 and up
- --------------------
- 
- No special action is necessary.  Just compile the code, make install-exec, and start
-up the Citadel server again.  The server will recognize what you are doing and perform
-some database upgrades internally during startup.
