-| Allow Login by User Number | Yes     | Allow logging in by typing the user number at the login prompt. | 
-| Allow Login by Real Name   | Yes     | Allow logins using either real name or alias. |

-This is the advanced options menu for the selected node. The available options are of an advanced nature and should not be modified unless you are sure of the consequences and necessary preparation.

-^ Option Name              ^ Default     ^ Description ^ 
-| Validation User          | 1           | When a caller logs onto the system as New, by default they must send validation feedback to the sysop. \\ \\ To disable the feedback requirement, set this value to 0. \\ \\ To require new users to send validation feedback, set this value to the user number who will receive the feedback. By default, feedback is sent to user #1. | 
-| Notification User        | Nobody      | When an error has occurred, a notification message can be sent to a user number (e.g., a sysop). \\ \\ This feature can be disabled by setting this value to 0, or can be enabled by setting the user number who will receive the notification (normally user #1). \\ \\ Note: Error messages are always logged (i.e., to ''[[dir:data]]/error.log''). | 
-| Notification Error Level | Critical    | Select the minimum severity of error messages that will be forwarded to the Notification User. | 
-| Semaphore Frequency      | 5 seconds   | Number of seconds between [[config:semfiles|semaphore file]] checks while this node is waiting for logins. Default is 5 seconds. | 
-| Statistics Frequency     | 5 seconds   | Number of seconds between system statistics checks (e.g., calls per day, logins today, etc.) while this node is waiting for logins. Default is 5 seconds. | 
-| Inactivity Warning       | 180 seconds | Number of seconds until an inactive user will receive a warning (e.g., "Are you still there?"). | 
-| Inactivity Disconnection | 300 seconds | Number of seconds before an inactive user will be disconnected. | 
 | Daily Event              | <empty>     | Any valid [[config:cmdline|command line]] that this node's terminal server should run each day. If multiple programs or commands are required, use a batchfile or shell script. This runs when the first caller after midnight logs off. | | Daily Event              | <empty>     | Any valid [[config:cmdline|command line]] that this node's terminal server should run each day.
