-------------------------------------------------------------------------- Setup hints for using BGFAX Front-end mode with EZYCOM BBS 02-23-94 Frank Conway FAX 303-770-5245 FidoNet 1:104/670 BBS 303-770-5815 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This document was prepared by Frank Conway with assistance from the author B.J. Guillot. Contained within the files you recieved with your copy of BGFAX will be 2 files specifically designed to work with EZYCOM BBS v1.02. This should work with any upgrade versions of Ezycom as long as they do not change the basic premise of the way Ezycom looks runs in rear-end mode (Or behind a front-end application such as BGFAX). The files mentioned are: EZYFBBS.BAT - Batch file that calls BGFAX Front-end mode and loads certian TSR's needed for Ezycom EZEXEBBS.BAT- The batch file DOBBS.BAT calls to run the BBS upon recipt of a data call. (RENAME TO (EXEBBS.BAT)) These files are pre-set for use just a minor look thru to check and make sure your paths and other minor things are correct. For some reason the REAR-END operation of BGFAX would not work with my High Speed modems. Well the only way I could think of was to do it in front end mode. It worked... This is a valid way to use your phone line for both FAX and DATA as long as your not using any other Front-end Mailer such as FRONT DOOR. If you are then please refer to the Help files for the particular mailer you are using. I am running multi-lines and utilize one for mail (FRONTDOOR) and the second for DATA/FAX calls. This has proved to work out GREAT. ============================================================================= FBBS.BAT ~~~~~~~~ @ECHO OFF REM ** an example batch file for frontend mode operation for EZYCOM BBS **** SET EZY=C:\EZY SET TASK=2 SET BGFAX=C:\EZY\FAX REM ** Replace with X00 command line if not using BNU ************* C:\BNU /T:2048 /R:2048 /P:2 /F REM ****** Autoboot can be removed if not used ******************** C:\AUTOBOOT /DVT N2 /CLD REM ****** Remove if using DOS Ansi.sys instead of DVANSI ********* C:\DV\DVANSI :Start C: CD\EZY\FAX BGFAX /HOST if errorlevel 55 maint1.bat if errorlevel 50 maint2.bat if errorlevel 4 goto faxrcvd if errorlevel 3 goto datacall if errorlevel 2 goto datacall if errorlevel 1 goto Start goto end :faxrcvd REM *** Can put a PRINTFAX batch file here to print upon recieve *** goto Start :datacall CALL C:\EZY\FAX\DOBBS.BAT goto Start :end exit EXEBBS.BAT ~~~~~~~~~~ REM *** batch file for running EZYCOM BBS within BGFAX's front end mode *** REM *** Any questions can be refered to Frank Conway @ Evil Ed's BBS *** REM *** 303-770-5815 or Fido Net # 1:104/670, Special thanks goes to the*** REM *** Author B.J.
