Hi Mike!
And welcome as an official site!

Wouldn't it be easier for you to just have them select a specific conference to download in their user profile? You could still help them (meaning probably do the configuration for them) but no need to set up complicated security rules.

This group has never used a BBS of any kind. I will do whatever
it takes to make it easy for them to do so. Carrying quite a
number of Networks, they would have to work hard to set it up
themselves.
If he does join, I will let you know how it goes.

Right -- can get confusing when one not sure of the terminology -- checking out applicants' BBSes I'll sometimes get confused because I'm used to accessing one way and they do it a different way. As for your user, I was thinking more setting up the account for them: "just log in" Forgot a major detail: the system doesn't know what to do next! I use a script to get my e-mail -- your people don't have that luxury!
If he does join, I will let you know how it goes.
OK, thanks!
Feel free to visit at hobbylinebbs.com Winserver's web interface
is great! I don't know if you have ever logged into one, but I
find it a great way to post messages.

I was camping last weekend and met some campers that are also Ham operators. When I
spoke with one of them, he was interested in joining the BBS because I carry a number of
message areas dealing with Ham.
He hasn't joined yet, but he is waiting to talk to the rest of the group to try and get them
to all join.

Perhaps sysops are content in just having other sysops visit each
other. I think regular people simply have no idea that
FTN/echomail exists.
