Subj : a few questions To : alt.bbs.synchronet From : Ned Brickley Date : Sat Jun 11 2005 11:06 am From Newsgroup: alt.bbs.synchronet Good day all, I've got a few questions and hopefully they won't show me up to be a common user. ;) Anyway, First telnet programs. I prefer to use SecureCRT, Version 4.0.6 (build 430) and I have run into a couple of small snags. First when I try using chat it only shows one letter at a time. I know there is a setting in there somewhere I am missing. Second question, In order to get new postings from DOVE, do I need to have FTP running? The reason I ask is this is a test system and I don't like to have FTP running when I don't need to. normally I have it blocked at my firewall. I have turned off anonymous logins of course. Third question, where do I find the html pages for editing the default web site? I'm running on Windows 2000. Fourth question, backups and restores. Do I have to shut the server down to back it up, and if I restore it, (such as rebuilding a system or moving to a new system), is there anything special I need to do or will just restoring everything and possibly reinstalling the server application be all I need to do? Thank you in advance. :) -- Ned "There's nothing wrong with Microsoft that taking a machine-gun to their entire Marketing and Advertising department wouldn't cure." www.angry.net --- Synchronet 3.12b-Win32 NewsLink 1.83 .
