SYSOP BBS SECURITY PACKAGE INFO
Announcing the release of Sysop's BBS Security Pak. With release
of REPORT.EXE, the complete, four part package comprising the BBS
Security Pak is now available. The four utilities comprising the
complete package are: CALLBLOC.PPE, VULGARID.PPE, CALLERID.PPE,
and REPORT.EXE. All four items together significantly increase
the security of a small to medium sized PCBoard 15.x BBS system,
requiring much less manual monitoring by the Sysop.
The latest versions of all four items can be downloaded from my
BBS (SBG Online! 703-450-9456). A brief description of each is:
1. CALLBLOC.PPE a bad caller blocker utility. Must
have CallerID modem and service. The
PPE checks all calls incoming against
a Sysop generated text file listing of
undesired phone numbers. When a match
is found, the system logs the info,
hangs-up, and resets the system before
the user can logon. HIGHLY Sysop con-
figurable.
2. VULGARID.PPE an abusive user monitor. Checks new
user entries of name and city against
a Sysop generated text file of words,
characters, and phrases. Similar to,
but more comprehensive than the stan-
dard PCBoard TCAN name check. When a
match is found: the info is logged,
user is disconnected, and phone number
is written to CALLBLOC.PPE file for
future automatic lock-out. Requires
CallerID capable modem/service.
VULGAR.PPE supports non-CallerID
systems.
3. CALLERID.PPE performs ALL functions of CallerID user
monitoring and user phone number entry
verification. Eliminates need for local
CallBack verifiers which can be very time
consuming. EXTREMELY Sysop configurable.
Requires CallerID capable modem/service.
4. REPORT.EXE generates various reports for Sysop review
showing all users with matching informa-
tion, such as: passwords, home phone #s,
business phone #s, CallerID #s, etc. to
allow Sysop offline review and identifica-
tion of questionable users and incomplete
or invalid user record entries. Will
function without CallerID capability.
REGISTRATION,
SOURCE CODE: Only REPORT.EXE requires registration ($10) US. All the
other PPE utilities are FREE for use!! Additionally, the
source code can be purchased for all four items for only
$50 (US). (or, $25 for the three PPSs and $25 for REPORT.C)
(All resticted to personal use modification only--may not
be further distributed).
REPORT.EXE must be registered only once! After that, all
future versions are free--the user is registered, not the
program. Also, when you purchase the source code package,
you will receive access to my BBS for one year so as to
download new versions/updates of the source code during
the one year free support period.
VERY FEW packages offer this extent of support and access!!
The intent is to provide you maximum security, integrity,
and customization of your BBS security system.
DISTRIBUTION: To acquire the latest version of the four utilities com-
prising the package, you can download them from my BBS:
SBG Online! (703) 450-9456. I will also attempt to upload
the latest versions to SALT AIR BBS (PCBoard Support BBS).
