NAME

bbscomd - OurNet BBS Remote Access Daemon

SYNOPSIS

% bbscomd [-acdfghx] [-b addr] [-p port] [-u key] <backend> <args>...
% bbscomd -acfg -u melix MELIX /home/melix 2997 350

DESCRIPTION

The bbscomd starts a OurNet::BBS::Server daemon listening on the specified port (default 7979). Remote users could then start using OurNet::BBS::Client to connect, e.g.:

use OurNet::BBS;
my $Remote_BBS = OurNet::BBS->new('OurNet', 'remote.org');

If the -f flag is specified, bbscomd will fork a new process to run as daemon. The -d flag turns on debugging.

The -u specifies the pgp keyid or userid used in authorization. If -a is supplied, the server will serve in 'authentication' mode with additional permission controls. Similarly, -c disallows insecure cipher modes.

The -g flag allows server to assume 'guest' on a failed Authentication mode, with permission controls bits.

The -x flag assumes default settings on Win32. It's not meant to be used on other platforms.

If you don't want to bind all available IPs, specify one using the -b flag.

Please refer to OurNet::BBS modules for more information on usages.
