This section is designed for experienced Spider sysops who want to install -Spider from scratch. It is simply a check list of things that need to be -done without any explanations. The name in brackets at the end of each line -is the user that should be doing that process. +
In the /spider/msg directory you will find a file called badmsg.pl.issue. Rename +this to badmsg.pl and edit the file. The original looks something like this .... +
+
+
+
+# the list of regexes for messages that we won't store having
+# received them (bear in mind that we must receive them fully before
+# we can bin them)
+
+
+# The format of each line is as follows
+
+# type source pattern
+# P/B/F T/F/O/S regex
+
+# type: P - private, B - bulletin (msg), F - file (ak1a bull)
+# source: T - to field, F - from field, O - origin, S - subject
+# pattern: a perl regex on the field requested
+
+# Currently only type B and P msgs are affected by this code.
+#
+# The list is read from the top down, the first pattern that matches
+# causes the action to be taken.
+
+# The pattern can be undef or 0 in which case it will always be selected
+# for the action specified
+
+
+
+package DXMsg;
+
+@badmsg = (
+'B', 'T', 'SALE',
+'B', 'T', 'WANTED',
+'B', 'S', 'WANTED',
+'B', 'S', 'SALE',
+'B', 'S', 'WTB',
+'B', 'S', 'WTS',
+'B', 'T', 'FS',
+);

Spider should now be running and you should be able to login using the -client program. +
I think this is fairly self explanatory. It is simply a list of subject +headers that we do not want to pass on to either the users of the cluster or +the other cluster nodes that we are linked to. This is usually because of +rules and regulations pertaining to items for sale etc in a particular country. +
+
From version 1.47, this method is replaced by the command set/baddx +
+
In the same way as mail, there are some types of spot we do not wish to pass on +to users or linked cluster nodes. In the /spider/data directory you will find +a file called baddx.pl.issue. Rename this to baddx.pl and edit the file. The +original looks like this .... +
+
+
+
+# the list of dx spot addresses that we don't store and don't pass on
+
+
+package DXProt;
+
+@baddx = qw
+
+ FROG
+ SALE
+ FORSALE
+ WANTED
+ P1RATE
+ PIRATE
+ TEST
+ DXTEST
+ NIL
+ NOCALL
+);
+
++
Again, this is simply a list of names we do not want to see in the spotted +field of a DX callout. +
+
+
Create a file in /spider/data called badwords. The format is quite +simple. Lines beginning with # are ignored so comments can be added. An +example file is below ...
-
Spider should now be able to accept logins via telnet, netrom and ax25. +
+
+# Below is a list of words we do not wish to see on the cluster
+grunge grunged grunging
+splodge splodger splodging
+grince
+fluffle
+
+Multiple words can be used on the same line as shown. Obviously these +are just examples :-)
-
You can reload the file from the cluster prompt as sysop with load/badwords.
