INetShell is a CNet BBS tool that allows users to use Internet
easily. INet has the ability to store user database entries
for FTP/TELNET/FINGER sites as well as many other features.
This is a full working version, it is only limited in that it
will only allow one user to be in INetShell at a time.
Once registered. This same version is only limited by the number
of active ports that you have on your system.
v3.25f update: Works with both v3.05c and v4.xx of CNet Amiga BBS
Read installation instructions carefully or it could/will screw up
some of your databases. This is a concern with v4.xx of CNet, as
the data structures and method of maintaining UUCP IDs has been
changed.
Changes in this version:

\*******************************************************************/
REVISIONS :
3.25f (08/05/97) - (IS) Was able to track down and fix the insufficient time
bug in INetShell. (Thank you Tempest Bloodguad for

were having with time remaining/accounting system.
3.25d (04/20/97) - (IS) INetShell will now allow the format for ftp file
storage as following:
AmiTCP:Users/%s/Files/
Where the %s represents the users UUCPID. The ftp

NOTE/WARNING message when editing FTP dir path.
- (IM) Modified for above to allow for full proper
operation.

of the files in AlynxDownload.lha archive. (these

module, the activity you are preforming is now

instead of using $0.0000/min format, you now enter
as 0.01c/min).
- (IS) INetShell now checks users FTP Directory size upon
initial entry into INetShell and upon leaveing each
of the file xfer capable clients. If FTP directory
size is over that set in INetConfig, it will remove
the ability of the user to utilize a client that
has file xfer capability. (NOTE: This does not
affect users with maint access enabled.)
- (IS) Time Left online for user now updated on all menu
screens, taking in account actual time left in call
as well as account balance. Converts funds in
account balance to minutes automatically.
- (IS) INetShell will now, perform the auto-hide/muffle
and port monitor in a method that makes sense. It
will hide or muffle you only if you are not

ONLY turn port monitor OFF and not turn it on, when
entering INetShell. Additionally it will remeber
which ports where set up which way and return them
to the original settings upon exiting.
- (IS) Added a check to make sure the various clients are
installed. If they are not, the option to use them
does not even show up in the main menu command
list.

sites.
- (IS) Notebook entries are now displayed as a normal list
instead of having to cycle through each one. This
allows for faster and more flexible maintenance of
the notebook.

Each menu list can have 100 entries as well, for a
possible 10000 different TELNET/FTP listings.
- (IS) SysOp defined IRC sites limited to 100. If someone
wants this section to be menu capable as are
FTP/Telnet sites it can be done.
- (IS) SysOp defined Finger sites not presently available,
if someone would like this added, it would not be
difficult, this could also include a menu list as
well.

100. Will consider setting this up as a menu
feature as are the SysOp defined sites.

right away, or just add them to you download
buffer.
