The "bbssupport" folder contains the "bbsconfig" file. It looks something like this:
1 - The Debug Level
2 - Number of users for this set up
24576 - Stack size in Bytes for each user (you shouldn't change)
360 - Number of 1 minute periods till a "reset"
1 - Reset mode
sysop - This system's Sysop name
MUBBS Super BBS - This system's name
Later on there will be a small application that modifies this file in a "Mac" way (but don't hold your breath).
Debug levels are 0= OFF, 1= ON, 2= more. There may be a level 3 later where it does shows the other level stuff also. If you don't like all the "weird" printing at the start of MUBBS, turn it off.
Number of users is up to you and your MEMORY. 1 is minimum (the Mac screen and keyboard). You ALWAYS have to include the "monitor" screen as a user, so really you could only have 32 phone lines, you set the number of users to 33. Each user gets his own memory space. Figure that for each user you need another 32K.
Stack size is configurable so that you can taylor the BBS to low memory configurations. SOME MODULES MAY CRASH and screw up if this is too low a number. It's better to add a SIMM or two than make this smaller. Don't ever make it bigger than 28000 ! (MUBBS adds 4K to whatever you put in so it's never under 4K).
If you add more users, you may run out of memory. More users = more memory needed. You may have to increase the "Application Size" in the finders "get info" box if you are running 16 or more users..
Reset happens every 360, 1 minute periods or every 6 hours. Depending on the "reset mode" you select, the system reloads or resets the computer.
Reset mode levels are 0= NEVER, 1= Only reload MUBBS, 2= Every 4 times do a FULL system RESTART. I recommend AT LEAST level 1. When you are playing around setting the BBS up, you may not want it to reload at all. It only reloads after EVERYONE is logged out.
The "config" file contains the sysop's name so that when someone writes to the "sysop" it automatically E-mails the sysop's real name. The system name is there for other modules to use if needed.
