Any help is greately appreciate Hi Matt, they moved, there is a newer version of their shareware program v4.6 TD with the correct address and tel no. You can reach them at 1-805-873-2500 (voice) but you can get the new "Pro" version for either Windows or Dos for much less at Mail Order and CompUsa/Computer City type discount stores. (around $65) The Pro version has a lot of new features and a different interface from the Test Drive,(most love it, some hate it) if you prefer the older Test Drive look and feel Qmodem is still selling Qmodem 5.0 which is more like the original TD program for about $20. -=RW=- OLXWin 1.00a rwalker@ios.com --- WM v3.11/93-0947 * Origin: Waterside BBS - NJ - (201) 641-5375 28.8k (1:2604/568.0) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 248 QMODEM USER Ref: CC400001 Date: 08/01/95 From: JOHN DANTZLER Time: 11:46pm \/To: GORDON WOODROOF (Read 7 times) Subj: Rip Term -> Create a phone book entry for the BBS being called (alt D) and select -> the RIP terminal emulation instead of ANSI.

There is a file in the QMPro dir with names and password that the users enter. Modify the code from "0" to "1" the #1 tells the host program that you can grant sysop access to that person. The only drawback to that is that you now have to enter the FULL path of any files that you'd like to D/l from the host program. Look for QMPro Test Drive and read the doc file in it. I hear that it is just about the same. I have the owners manual and when I lost it I called Mustang Software and asked them if they were the same. They said about 90% the same. The screens are about the only thing different. I hope that helps. DS>It's probably looking for command.com. Copy it into the QmPro subdir DS>and see if that cures it. This will NOT work. You need to get ahold of Doorway for Dos. That is the program that tells QMPro host mode to swap out... ...

Now do you have an internal or external modem, this makes a difference. If internal, use a utility to check your 16550 to see if its functioning properly, if its faulty, it can affect uploads. If external, then you need a 16550 serial card. You should be seeing an output buffer overflow just before it aborts, also does it abort to the bbs or just drops carrier without warning (and look closely at the cps rates, if it starts dropping steadily, then it's definitely a buffer problem with the serial port, meaning you need a 16550 uart chip if internal or a serial card with it for external use. BR:>I started with the speed set at 115,xxx baud and reduced it to 57,xxx, BR:>then finally to 19,200, but that didn't solve the problem. with a 14400, never a need to set it higher than 19200, a lot of bbs's lock their settings at this speed. --- * QMPro 1.53 * ------*=S#The Police Station 615-226-7841#S=*------ --- QScan/WC v1.17b / 01-0550 * Origin: The Police Station BBS * Nashville, TN * 615-226-7841 (1:116/6) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 248 QMODEM USER Ref: CCB00003 Date: 08/02/95 From: ALAN AYCOCK Time: 09:22pm \/To: FRED HALL (Read 7 times) Subj: Re: Help with scripts Thanks Fred for the help.

Posting a message in this echo will be understood by the Moderator to be a declaration of your intent to abide by these and any other rules that may, of necessity, be formulated. Repeated, willful and/or flagrant violations of the rules of QMODEM_USERS will result in a request to the offender's echomail supplier to cut their access to this echo. 1. The topics of this conference should be related to Qmodem and/or and utilities related to Qmodem, including but not limited to external protocols usable with Qmodem. Any messages not on-topic will be considered annoying. 2. Challenge the ISSUE, not the message poster. Foul language belongs on the street, not here. Foul or harsh language will not be tolerated. If you don't like what someone has to say for personal reasons, send them a reply using netmail - not echomail. 3. Use of handles and or aliases is not allowed. Those people who are ogged on to bbs's using an alias should post their real names prominently in he body of each message they post. 4. Discussion of software piracy, including ways to 'register' unregistered shareware will not be tolerated. 5. Advertising for commercial ventures, even though Shareware related, will not be tolerated. Use either a local conference which permits such material, or use Fidonet Matrix mail, where only you pay for it. NOTE: An author's announcement of a Shareware program will not be considered a commercial advertisement. 6. There will be no usage of any high ASCII characters, BBS colour control codes, or PGP 'signatures'. Standard signatures are requested to be only one line, but may NOT exceed two lines at the most. 7. There shall be no bashing of hardware, hardware manufacturers, software programs, software authors or any other individuals. If you have a roblem with a program, company or piece of equipment and want to discuss it in n effort to get some help, fine, but let's not tear something down unless you can offer constructive suggestions for building it back up. 8. This conference MAY NOT be gated to the BIX echomail system, GroupMail or to any other network's echomail system WITHOUT permission of the Moderator. This is not to say it cannot be done, however the moderator must know where the echomail is going, and who the gateways are. essages in this conference should conform with the FTSC (FidoNet Technical Standards Committee) format and must contain a tear and origin line. The tear line may not be longer than 35 characters including the "-" chars. The origin line must fit on one 80 character wide CRT including the " # Origin: " text. Eight-bit ASCII is not allowed in this conference. All characters in displayed message data (text/header) must be in the range 32 to 126, which rules out control characters. The exception to this rule is if you need to show someone a translation table that contains ight-bit ASCII. 9. Treat others as you wish to be treated yourself. Please keep the amount f quoted text down to the bare essentials. Do not quote SEEN-BY and/or " # Origin: " information unless it is ABSOLUTELY necessary. One of the biggest costs with distributed mail conferences is the use and MISuse of the quote feature. Please keep "Thank you" and/or "This is a test" messages in NETMAIL, where they belong. People are paying plenty of oney to ship this conference around and if we can keep unnecessary overhead down, we'll all be happier. 10. There is only one Moderator, me! If you feel someone has broken the ules please NETMAIL the Moderator and don't take it upon yourself to admonish anyone. Let the Moderator moderate! Leave the moderating to ME. If you want to moderate, become a moderator first. 11 Messages from the Moderator concerning enforcement of the rules are not considered off-topic, however, neither are they topics for general discussion by anyone other than the Moderator and the person being addressed. i.e., if the Moderator deems it necessary to write a person in the echo who is in violation of the rules, it is not a sign that the topic is a free for all and everyone can jump in. Discussion should remain between the Moderator and the person being addressed only! (Just a further clarification of "Let the Moderator Moderate!) I work on a "three strikes you're out" basis. * First a public warning. * Second a netmail warning. * Third time and you are asked to leave the conference. If you do not comply with a request to leave the conference, or if a sysop does not comply with the moderator's request to disallow a user from access to the conference, distribution of the echo can and will be cut to that node. Excommunication from the echo shall be for a minimum of 15 days cooling off period for first offense, 30-60 days minimum for a second offense (Moderator's option) and permanently should you be cut a third time. The SysOp of each board carrying this echo is granted the right to Edit or Kill messages which, in their opinion, are inappropriate and unacceptable n their system. Exception to this rule is the killing or editing of any messages received prior to feeding them to linked systems. This is NOT permitted. Please use common sense when interpreting this rule and, if in doubt, netmail queries will be promptly answered. However should you do o, I'd appreciate netmail explaining which message and why you felt it should be killed on your system. That's it, except that if someone comes up with a new and improved way to aggravate people, I reserve the right to make a rule to fit the occasion.
