Say you're trying to help a friend with his fido setup. He doesn't have a node number yet from his NC, or if he does, it may not be in the Fidonet nodelist yet. Communications via netmail between yourself and this new sysop would be impossible. If you want to communicate with this node via direct mail to give him help and tips, etc. with his setup, you need to let your BBS know how to contact him. You can do that with an "othernet" list for example. Doing it this way is the best way since you surely don't want to modify your current nodelist... Adding your friend to the current nodelist yourself will mean that subsequent nodediffs will not work with your nodelist/nodediff when Thursday night comes around. You set up a file that your BBS will read when it compiles your nodelist data table which then will not effect subesquent nodediff files. To set this file up, you need to include parts of the current nodelist to show what net this new node will be in for your BBS data files. You would include the Zone Coordinator line, the region this node is in, the "Host," line for the node (his net), and his or her nodenumber. Here's an example that creates data for a friend who you are helping, node number 900 in net 261. Lines which are too long for FidoGazette are wrapped here. Naturally, you shouldn't include the [WRAPS] in your othernet list: ==========your otherlist file========== Zone,1,North_America,Slaterville_Springs_NY,Janis_Kracht,1-607-[WRAPS] 200-4076,9600,CM,XX,H16,V32b,V42b,V34,V32T,X2C,INA:filegate.[WRAPS] net,IBN,IBN:24555,IFT,ITN Region,13,RC_-_Mid_Atlantic,DC_DE_MD_NJ_NY_PA_VA_WV,Michael_Luko[WRAPS] ,1-856-933-7096,33600,CM,V34,V32b,INA:cfbbs.dtdns.net,IBN,ITN,IFT Host,261,Maryland_Central_Net,NC,Mark_Hofmann,000-0-0-0-0,300,CM[WRAPS] ,XX,INA:bbs.weather-station.org,IBN:24555 ,900,NewBBS,Slaterville_Springs_NY,Joe_newbie,000-0-0-0-0,300[WRAPS] ,CM,XX,INA:SysOp_Domain,IBN ==========end otherlist file======= Edit this file with an ascii editor (not a word processor, unless you can save it as a text file), copy and paste needed parts of the nodelist as above, then save it with a name like otherlist.{weeknumber} Put this file in your nodelist directory. With the BBBS mailer, you also have to tell BBBS to include this file when it copiles the data tables for your nodelist. For example, in the external.bbb file you could list the following to include this file: ========external.bbb nodelist section======= [nodelist] /home/bbbs/nodelist/nodelist.* /home/bbbs/nodelist/nodediff.* /home/bbbs/nodelist/PASNLIST.* /home/bbbs/nodelist/PASNLIST.* /home/bbbs/nodelist/point.* /home/bbbs/nodelist/point.* /home/bbbs/nodelist/Stnlist.* /home/bbbs/nodelist/Stnlist.* /home/bbbs/nodelist/othernet.* /home/bbbs/nodelist/othernet.* ============= Then just issue the command that compiles the nodelist data for your nodelist. With BBBS, the command is: ./bbbs bnc 0 Now you can send netmail directly to Joe Newbie since he's in your bbs's data tables.

FIDOGAZETTE Vol 7 No 06 Page 5 April 1st, 2013 ----------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================= C O L U M N S ================================================================= e-Ministries by Jon Justvig March 29, 2013 Issue #: 21 Gen 16:1 Now Sarai Abram's wife bare him no children: and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar. Sarai was unable to have children at this point and we'll see in just a moment how Abram gets a child. Gen 16:2 And Sarai said unto Abram, Behold now, the LORD hath restrained me from bearing: I pray thee, go in unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai. Sarai has asked Abram to have an affair with her handmaid so that they will have a child. You can imagine the kind of problems this will cause for the both of them, Sarai and Abram. Gen 16:3 And Sarai Abram's wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife. Gen 16:4 And he went in unto Hagar, and she conceived: and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes. Abram and Sarai had been together ten years and she is now his wife. Hagar had a child with Abram and this was very disturbing to Sarai. Gen 16:5 And Sarai said unto Abram, My wrong be upon thee: I have given my maid into thy bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes: the LORD judge between me and thee. Gen 16:6 But Abram said unto Sarai, Behold, thy maid is in thy hand; do to her as it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled from her face. At this point after they had a child, Sarai's handmaid knew exactly how Sarai felt and Hagar had left them. Gen 16:7 And the angel of the LORD found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur. Gen 16:8 And he said, Hagar, Sarai's maid, whence camest thou? and whither wilt thou go? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai. Gen 16:9 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Return to thy mistress, and submit thyself under her hands. Gen 16:10 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude. Abram is about to have a very numerous amount of children that will spread across the land. Gen 16:11 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction. Ishmael was the name of their son, this was the beginning of their seed which God had promised Abram from the beginning that Abram would replenish the earth with his offspring. Gen 16:12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren. Gen 16:13 And she called the name of the LORD that spake unto her, Thou God seest me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that seeth me? Gen 16:14 Wherefore the well was called Beerlahairoi; behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered. Gen 16:15 And Hagar bare Abram a son: and Abram called his son's name, which Hagar bare, Ishmael. Gen 16:16 And Abram was fourscore and six years old, when Hagar bare Ishmael to Abram. Wow, Abram was eighty six years old when Hagar delivered their first child. The Lord had commanded her to return to Abram as their handmaid. We'll stop here and continue in the next few days. *** If you've enjoyed our meeting, remember to ask your SysOp to carry MINISTER, an echo with FidoNet if he/she doesn't already. Remember also to keep your head up high. May God bless you and keep you! *** This conclude this issue of e-Ministries provided by Jon Justvig.

If you don't like potato skin much, you can slip the skin off the potatoes. I usually remove 1/4 of the skins. Fold in sour cream. Pour this mixture into a buttered pie plate, and form peaks on the top with a spatula. Top with pats of butter and sprinkle paprika over all. Bake at 350F for 30 minutes.

If you have an idea for a column or a series of articles, please contact me :) New! Mailing-List subscriptions via www.filegate.net // lists / ?p=subscribe but of course you can always link into your uplink and use Tick or a tick compatible program. Where to Send Your Articles Unlike most editors, I surely do not mind running my mouth when there is a sparsity of articles for the 'zine. I'd MUCH rather you sent in material... lacking that, I will fill these issues with my meanderings and thoughts and hopefully we will grow into something of consequence here :) Write an article! If you WOULD like to submit an article, feel free to drop your article off at: Email attach to address: janis @ filegate.net Fidonet attach: Janis Kracht at 1:261/38 Modem: 607-200-4076 Binkp: 1:261/100 filegate.net port 24555 telnet mailer: filegate.net If you are using routed Fidonet mail, don't send articles as routed attaches. They will fail somewhere along the path before getting here. Send them instead direct to filegate.net. Give it a title, sign your name and network address if you have one and send it along! Don't worry about the format, I can take anything you send me and mutilate it further as you can see above. Linux is nice that way (g). Spell checking your own work will help though (something I'm typically guilty of (g)). To send reviews or recipes to the Food section, email or netmail Janis as above. Email address for submissions to Dr.Debug: To send a question to Dr. Debug, email a question to: drdebug @ filegate.net or post in the fidogazette echo! :) To send a listing to the FidoGazette bbslist, email your listing to: bbslist @ filegate.net or post it in the fidogazette echo!
