| | ===== Upgrade to BinkIT v2 ===== |
| | |
| | If you've already setup BinkIT 1.x (e.g. using ''binkit.ini''), after updating your ''[[dir:exec]]/*.js'' and ''[[dir:load]]/*.js'' files to the latest (including ''binkit.js'' v2.x), you'll need to migrate your ''binkit.ini'' and ''ftn_domains.ini'' settings in ''sbbsecho.ini''. This can be done automatically by running "''[[dir:exec]]/[[util:jsexec]] binkit upgrade''". |
| | |
| | If you wish to perform the merge by hand, here are the changes: |
| | |
| | ^ Old ''binkit.ini'' key ^ New ''sbbsecho.ini'' key ^ |
| | | Global ''Capabilities'' | ''[BinkP] Capabilities'' | |
| | | Global ''Sysop'' | ''[BinkP] Sysop'' | |
| | | ''[//address//] Password'' | ''[node://address//] SessionPwd'' | |
| | | ''[//address//] Host'' | ''[node://address//] BinkpHost'' | |
| | | ''[//address//] Port'' | ''[node://address//] BinkpPort'' | |
| | | ''[//address//] Poll'' | ''[node://address//] BinkpPoll'' | |
| | | ''[//address//] AllowPlainPassword'' | ''[node://address//] BinkpAllowPlainAuth'' | |
| | | ''[//address//] AllowUnencrypted'' | ''[node://address//] BinkpAllowPlainText'' | |
| | | ''[//address//] SourceAddress'' | ''[node://address//] BinkpSourceAddress'' | |
| | |
| | The domain sections keys are unchanged, but the domain sections now require a ''domain:'' prefix: |
| | |
| | ^ Old ''ftn_domains.ini'' section ^ New ''sbbsecho.ini'' section ^ |
| | | ''[//name//]'' | ''[domain://name//]'' | |
| | |
| | Once the upgrade is complete, all of the BinkIT and [[util:SBBSecho]] configuration parameters can then be viewed and modified using the [[util:EchoCfg]] utility. |
