- ; Comment lines start with a ";" and may be used freely.
- ; The order of these lines is not significant.
- ;
- ; This configuration file assumes that your database will reside
- ; on drive C: in a subdirectory there called C:\ARESDATA, and that
- ; your backup and journal files will reside on C:\ARESBACK.
- ; The "GET" command will retrieve files from the directory C:\PUBLIC.
- ; This drive and these subdirectories MUST ALREADY EXIST.
- ; (Create them by "mkdir c:\aresdata", "mkdir c:\aresback", and
- ; "mkdir c:\public" if needed).
- ; Change these names as desired.
- ;
- ; IMPORTANT: Please check your CONFIG.SYS file on your boot disk(ette)
- ; to be sure that it contains a line like "FILES=20".
- ; If you don't have this, you may get database errors!
- ;
- ; journal path and journaling interval (in number of new transactions)
- journal C:\ARESBACK 25
- ; backup path and backup interval (in number of new transactions)
- backup C:\ARESBACK 33
- ; path for the main database file ARESDATA.DAT
- DBpath C:\ARESDATA
- ; path for the index files *.NDX
- Indexpath C:\ARESDATA
- ; path for "get filename" command. Be sure info file is on this path!

- ; To use a TNC, DRSI card, or G8BPQ switch,
- ; activate a command line such as one of those
- ; shown below by removing the ";" :
- ;attach ax0 type=ded port=1 baud=1200 users=5 autoexec=startup.p87 deleteoff
- ;attach ax1 type=ded port=1 baud=4800 users=6 autoexec=startup.tn1 deleteoff
- ;attach dr2 type=drsi drsivec=255 users=10 autoexec=startup.pcp deleteon
- ;attach bp1 type=bpq bpqvec=254 users=9 deleteon
- ; serial port retry count
- ; Set this higher if you get TNCRECOVER timeouts on fast PC systems.
- retry 50

- bpqretry 2000
- ; beacon time in minutes and beacon text

- ; You would normally set the widths at the same time you set the labels.
- ; Like the LABELS command, the sysop or any user station may use this command.
- ; widths=20,5,5,8
