CTRL Directory
The path to the Synchronet control (CTRL) directory defaults to a sub-directory named ctrl
off of the installation directory (e.g. /sbbs/ctrl/
).
Directory Contents
The Synchronet control directory contains critical configuration and data files for the operation of the software as well as some files (e.g. javascript
) that allow for sysop customization of the BBS.
Purpose
The purpose of this directory is a single place for the configuration of the BBS. Although there are data files (DAB and LST) present in a running system, these are legacy and the intent is that this directory will only contain files which configure components that ship with Synchronet itself.
SBBSCTRL Environment Variable
