sbbsexec.ini

The sbbsexec.ini file is used to configure the behavior of the kernel mode component of Synchronet FOSSIL and Virtual UART driver for Windows NT-based operating systems (this includes XP, Vista, and Windows 7): sbbsexec.dll.

Location

The default sbbsexec.ini file is located in your Synchronet exec directory. If there is another sbbsexec.ini file in the startup directory of the program to be executed (e.g. xtrn/doorgame/sbbsexec.ini), that file will be loaded after exec/sbbsexec.ini, over-riding only those values specified in the second file.

The standard alternate INI filenaming is also supported.

Root Section

These values may be be overridden in a program-specific section named after the program to be executed (e.g. [DSZ] for dsz.exe).

LogLevel

Default: Warning

Possible Values: Emergency, Alert, Critical, Error, Warning, Notice, Informational, Debugging

This key determines the minimum severity of messages from sbbsexec.dll that will be sent to the system debug log.

Debug

Default: false

Possible Values: true or false

CanDisconnect

Default: True

Possible Values: true or false

This key determines whether the program will be allowed to disconnect the user.

YieldInterval

Default: 1.0 Possible Values: 0 and up

Interval of time-slice yield, in milliseconds (fractions supported): Lower numbers result in more frequent yields, reducing CPU utilization and possibly reducing performance/responsiveness while higher numbers can result in fewer yields, increasing CPU utilization (possibly taxing the system) and increasing performance/responsiveness.

This number may need to be “tuned” on a per-program/system basis.

Set to '0' to disable yielding.

[UART] Section

Virtualize

Default: true

Possible Values: true or false

ComPort

Default: 1

Possible Values: 1-4

IRQ

Default: depends on ComPort value

Address

Default: depends on ComPort value
