SYSOP INFORMATION
|
||
|
||
So, you say you're ready to join our family? Great! This step
|
||
is a very important one for you and your users. A professional,
|
||
network for you and an information packed network for your users.
|
||
|
||
Before we get some information from you, we need to let you know
|
||
about the sysop guidelines for U'NI-net.
|
||
|
||
|
||
SYSOP GUIDELINES:
|
||
----------------
|
||
|
||
1) All Member systems must make mail transfers DAILY, this
|
||
eliminates old, dry mail and expedites replies.
|
||
Exceptions can be made for special cases but must be
|
||
approved by the Network Host and the affected Hub
|
||
Sysop in advance.
|
||
|
||
2) A QWK/REP compatible mail package must be supported on
|
||
your BBS for network mail transfers.
|
||
|
||
3) Every U'NI-net BBS is required to carry conferences:
|
||
NETNEWS: (Network News/"Read Only". Sysops must read
|
||
ALL messages.)
|
||
UNI-NET: (Sysops and Hosts Conference. Sysops must read
|
||
messages to YOU and ALL).
|
||
UNI-HOST: (If your system provides conference host(s),
|
||
this conference is required)
|
||
UNI-USERS (Allows User to contact Management)
|
||
|
||
Not required, but strongly recommended:
|
||
|
||
CHITCHAT (General conference, off topic messages are
|
||
often referred to this area)
|
||
|
||
UNI-HELPDESK (Reference desk for questions and
|
||
Answers)
|
||
|
||
4) Sysops must monitor and participate in the ADMIN
|
||
conference of the Hub to which they are assigned.
|
||
This conference will contain information necessary to
|
||
maintain efficiency and keep you advised of any changes
|
||
in, or additions to procedures.
|
||
|
||
5) U'NI-net conferences can not be sold. Subscription
|
||
systems are welcome on the network, but there can not
|
||
be an extra charge over and above the standard
|
||
subscription rate for access to U'NI-net.
|
||
|
||
|
||
6) Have Fun !
|
||
|
||
|
||
CHANGES:
|
||
--------
|
||
|
||
Our guidelines are always open to discussion and drafting.
|
||
The stress is always put on making the network easier to
|
||
administer, maximizing efficiency and providing the best
|
||
service possible without getting stuck in bureaucracy.
|
||
|
||
|
||
NETWORK ADMINISTRATION:
|
||
----------------------
|
||
|
||
Since the network was started by sysops with experience
|
||
from other networks, you'll see that the administration
|
||
is a compilation of what works best.
|
||
|
||
Day to day decisions regarding normal operations of the
|
||
network are handles by Network Host Cam Debuck. Major
|
||
decisions are decided by discussion and majority vote of the
|
||
U'NI-net Management Team.
|
||
|
||
The Management Team is made up of the following individuals:
|
||
|
||
Network Host
|
||
------------
|
||

|
||
|
||

||
Members may be added or removed by a majority vote of the
|
||
existing Management Team.
|
||
|
||
Any member of the Team may initiate a discussion or propose a
|
||
vote. Sysops or Users who would like to see a change made in
|
||
the way the Network operates should contact a member of the
|
||
Management Team regarding a vote proposal.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
System Taglines
|
||
---------------
|
||
|
||
Your netmail software will place a line of information at the
|
||
bottom of each message created at your BBS. This "tagline"
|
||
includes information about your BBS.
|
||
|
||
Please have your BBS tagline for U'NI-net conform to the
|
||
following:
|
||
|
||
U'NI-net: <your bbs name> <20> <your city>,<your state>
|
||
|
||
|
||
<20><><EFBFBD><EFBFBD>Single right quote mark
|
||
<20> U'NI<4E>-net: <<3C>net: MUST be lower case with a colon & space appended
|
||
<20><><EFBFBD><EFBFBD><EFBFBD><EFBFBD><EFBFBD>
|
||
<20>
|
||
<20><>This part MUST be upper case and followed by a hyphen ("-")
|
||
|
||
OPTIONAL: you may also append a "<22>" (Ascii 254) and the
|
||
telephone number of your BBS if it will fit - see the
|
||
documentation for your mail tosser program for maximum line
|
||
length - Example:
|
||
|
||
U'NI-net: <your bbs name> <20> <bbs city>,<bbs state> <20> <bbs phone #>
|
||
|
||
Please do not put anything before the word "U'NI-net:" except
|
||
for what your mail tosser might automatically put there.
|
||
|
||
If you are not located in the U.S. please include the name of
|
||
your country after your city or province as appropriate.
|
||
|
||
Please do not use abbreviations that are not well known - LA,
|
||
CA and NY are probably known most places - other abbreviations
|
||
may not be understood outside of your local area.
|
||
|
||
You may put other information (phone number or email address)
|
||
after your location if you have room, but not at the expense
|
||
of the required information.
|
||
|
||
If you do not wish to use the "<22>" character as a delimiter,
|
||
you may use some other character.
|
||
|
||
