To connect to goldmine bbs door server
Name or IP may be used:
goldminedoors.com 143.198.58.173
Port 2513 must be specified.
Use rlogin in external program definition
[tag] is a unique 3-character tag that identifies
your bbs when your users connect.
This will get you to the main menu
?rlogin.js 143.198.58.173:2513 -s [tag]%A -c %A
?rlogin.js 143.198.58.173:2513 -s [tag]%A -c %A
Hello Errol (and anyone else)... The above command line gets me to the main menu of the door server, but the %A part doesn't put in the username. It just displays the "current gamer" as [tag]%A. The %A isn't being "expanded" to a user name. Can you check/clarify that?
I'm able to get to the main menu just fine, and play the doors, with
just the command line:
?rlogin 143.198.58.173:2513 -p
But... this doesn't show the [tag] in front of the user name
displayed. I'm not sure how important that is, but it seems that most others who are logging in have that working. So, what command line
are you Synchronet BBS operators using to connect to the Gold Mine
server?

I believe it is working for me; I think I may also have -q on my
command line now.
Just logged in and my tag is displayed in front of my user name. At top
of menu on Gold Mine.
I know there was working rlogin to add some arguments, so don't know if
I have a later version of the rlogin.js I keep things pretty updated.
Aug 17 th is the date on my rlogin module.

Are you using Synchronet w/Windows? I haven't documented that, so would
be great to add to goldminebbs.com documentation site once we have a working example. I'm running Linux and i use an .sh script to grab the user name directly from the dropfile (e.g. pass the node number):
#!/bin/bash
# Get the node number and door code from the arguments passed NODE_NUMBER=$1
BBS="TAG" # Change this to your tag
DOOR_CODE=$2
# Define the path to the sbbs DOOR32.SYS file DOOR32_SYS_PATH=/sbbs/node${NODE_NUMBER}/DOOR32.SYS
# Extract the alias from line 7
USER_ALIAS=$(sed -n '7p'
"$DOOR32_SYS_PATH" | tr ' ' '-') # replace spaces
# Run the rsh-redone-client command
if [ -n "$DOOR_CODE" ]; then
TERM_PARAM="xtrn=$DOOR_CODE"
TERM=$TERM_PARAM rlogin -p 2513 -l "$USER_ALIAS" goldminedoors.com else
rlogin -p 2513 -l "$USER_ALIAS" goldminedoors.com
fi
I update fairly often too, my rlogin.js is dated Aug 10. Not likely to
be the issue here.
Are you on Windows? I'm on Linux and wonder if that might have an
effect.
Re: Re: GoldMine - Connecting from Synchronet BBSI said -A I mean -s. Looking at gitlab 8/10 was when -s and -S were added
Okay, but I doubt anyone else is doing that, and they have a [TAG] displayed in front of their Username. Just wondering why mine isn't working, and what other (Synchronet) users are using for their command line...
Is the [TAG] importaint in some way? Do you care if it's included in
the user's login?

Re: Re: GoldMine - Connecting from Synchronet BBS
I said -A I mean -s. Looking at gitlab 8/10 was when -s and -S were
added to telgate and/or rlogin.
So you check and confirm that your code has that option since it was
added on the same date, you said your file was modified. Or hopefully
you do have it, but something to check.
Let me know if I can test anything else for you...

Goldmine requires you send [TAG] from whatever BBS system you use ("require" is used loosley here as I don't prevent you from connecting, but it helps identifies what BBS you and your users are connecting
from).

Yeah, it creates a uniformity in terms of stats. I purposely set it up
as an "open" system and I don't require sign ups or approvals, I don't lock down by IP address, etc. I'm sure there's a native sbbs solution,
but the code i posted does work for sbbs w/linnux.
Happy to help in whatever way!

Just wanted to close the loop on this... I now have the [TAG]name thing working correctly.
For anyone else's benefit, on Synchronet the working command line is:
?rlogin goldminedoors.com:2513 -s [TAG]%a
For anyone else's benefit, on Synchronet the working command line is:
?rlogin goldminedoors.com:2513 -s [TAG]%a
?rlogin goldminedoors.com:2513 -s [TAG]%a
Does that work with multi-word user aliases? You might have to do
something like this to be compatible with multi-word aliases:
"[TAG]%A" - the capitalize the 'A' to prevent the auto-quoting and add quotes around the entire name with the [TAG] part.

It does NOT work with multi-word alias, unless the quotes are also used. Then it gets a little weird... When using the quotes, neither %a nor %A expand to the user's alias, they just show as "%a" or "%A".
Without the quotes, the %a or %A work, but only with a single-word
[TAG].

Yeah, I'm not surprised. The additional quotes was just an idea, but looking at the source code now, I see there's no special handling of quotes on command-lines within SBBS.

Yup, I can see how that'd be the case.

I just committed a trivial update to rlogin.js that'll allow you to specify the -s (or -c) option multiple times to build up the auth
string, e.g.
?rlogin server -s[TAG] -s %a
But the other way (with the quotes and no spaces) should work too.

Thanks for the update. Both ways do indeed work now, with this
difference:
If I define either of those methods as the command line for my external event/door, it works as expected, and produces this output on the
Goldmine site as the current user: [PAL]Gamgee
If I run either of those command lines while sitting at a prompt on my
BBS, using the ;EXEC command and then typing the command line, I get
this output on the site: [PAL]%A
So for some reason the alias variable is not being evaluated when run "manually".
Is the case of the %a or %A significant? Both show as "%A" on the
output if that means anything.

That's expected. I just committed a trivial change to str_cmds.js so
that it *will* now expand command-line specifiers that you pass on the command-line using the ;exec sysop command, so that should work if you update.

It sounds like you're using a command shell that is converting the
input to all-caps. Here's how it works for me using default.js and the updated str_cmds.js (and demonstrates the difference between %a and
%A):
= Main = 0:07:22 [4] fsxNet [11] FSX BBS: ;exec
Command-line: ?showargs %a
argc = 1
argv[0] = 'Digital Man'
= Main = 0:07:56 [4] fsxNet [11] FSX BBS: ;exec
Command-line: ?showargs %A
argc = 2
argv[0] = 'Digital'
argv[1] = 'Man'
showargs.js is just this (for test/demo purposes):
print("argc = " + argc);
for(i=0;i<argv.length;i++)
printf("argv[%d] = '%s'\r\n",i,argv[i].toString());

Ahhh, OK, thank you again. For a single-word alias I'll just use the lowercase one then.
As for my command shell, it is a modified form of default.bin (src).
The only changes though are that some commands have been disabled, and
some modified to use the DDMsgReader/DDAreaChooser mods. No changes
made to anything related to case/caps.
The display on the remote
website that always showed the capitalized "A" might have been something
on that end, I would guess.
Anyhow, things are all good now with the
command line for opening that game server door. Appreciate it.
No, I am on Linux.

Hello Errol (and anyone else)... The above command line gets me to the main menu of the door server, but the %A part doesn't put in the username. It just displays the "current gamer" as [tag]%A. The %A isn't being "expanded" to a user name. Can you check/clarify that?

modopts.ini for example? What does the scfg page setup for look like?

Just set it up like any External Program for SBBS. In scfg:
External Programs > Online Programs > [Section] > [Name]
And use the "?rlogin" Command Line that Digital Man specified in a
previous message w/Gamgee.
Native Executable Script = Yes
Use Shell or New Context = Yes
I'll put a screen shot on the web site tomorrow if that helps!

that would be great thank you. No matter what i do I get a lot of
undefined
value errors so I am guessing there is something i need to update in rlogin.js?
s is not defined, a is not defined, p is not defined. Where do I
define them?
Here's the refernce for the ?rlogin command:I cannot use any -x (pipe commands without getting errors) so i just left them out and used this line
https://wiki.synchro.net/module:rlogin
important ?rlogin switches are:
-p (which sends user alias & pw in the order Gold Mine expects)
-q (optional, quiet mode, e.g. no banner or pause prompt)
-t (optional, allows you to send a direct launch XTRN code, like -t
xtrn=MRC)
./scfg is located in the exec/ dir, so probably sbbs/exec.

You're just running an old rlogin.js.
The startup directory doesn't matter (has no impact) when running .js scripts from SBBS.
You don't define them, the script defines them. I'm not sure why you have multiple %A values on that command-line. That doesn't look right.

Errol,
Do you notice that when you try to open some of the doors on the Goldmine that the door does not open but instead goes back to the door selection menu on the goldmine? I tried it on your BBS tonight and noticed it does the same thing on my BBS. I had one of my callers point this out to me. I hope you are doing well. Let me know if you noticed this too.

I did see it on area 2 game 2 I believe. So i does happen from my bbs also.
So probably need to inquire with the maintainer of Gold Mine. No certain if he monitors this echo or not; have so many I cannot recall which I have seen him in recently.
I'll check my emails, and if I have his email will email him directly.

Thanks for all your help my guys on my BBS can get to your game server
just
fine now but most of the games when selected sent the user back to the select a
game menu on your server instead of launching the game. NOT ALL of
them just
some of them. Any ideas why?
We are having fun in my small community reaching out to other BBS's
this way.
Thank you.

Hi,
They look like callers from my bbs. I am Rixter-ricky sutphin. Every thing is
working great now. Thanks! I cannot use the [tag] option because anything after
the port number in the launch command comes back to me as undefined and it terminates the connection with goldmine. My version of r login doesn’t allow
tag or -a -p -etc command pipe. They are all undefined. Previously about half
the doors on the gold mine would just not open and would instantly go back to
the goldmine door menu. Now they all work. Thanks. Every thing is ok now. We are able to enjoy your games again.

Try "xtrn=" in lower case. I've noticed that perhaps something may
have changed in a recent commit - not 100% sure but changing
everything to lower case when passing this seems to work. I'll dig in

You don't define them, the script defines them. You need an updated version of the scrit. And the startup directory and "door file type" don't matter (aren't used) for JS scripts.
Where do I obtain a more current version of rlogin.js? Thank you so much for helping me out so much.

The same place you get/got Synchronet. If you want *just* that file, you can download it from gitlab.synchro.net.

I downloaded synchronet319b from another BBS not from some git thingy, but thanks for the information. It is funny to see the word git, my folks were english and the word 'git' meant something derrogatory. LOL. I am imagining a
lab full of gits now. I still chuckle when I see you guys typing it out. Have a
good day Rob. Everything seems to be working fine without changing it. I might
still try to get me a current copy of it anyway. You guys are awesome.
Someone else will probably remember the name of the git.. but git the source code manager was written because someone copied perforce (a proprietary source code management tool that Linus was using for the Linux kernel, on the condition no one made a opensource free version of it) I think it was the guy of samba fame? that did it, but perforce got mad and Linus put together git in a hurry to replace it - I think it was called git because of the guy who made the opensource perforce tool.
My memory isn't as good as it used to be, but I think that was what happened.. a google search would probably correct me :P

The source code management tool the Linux kernel devs were usingbefore git wa
called BitKeeper. Sometime in 2005, the relationshipbetween the BitKeeper guy
and the Linux kernel devs soured and Linus decided to create his ownsourc
code management tool.
Ah bitkeeper, not perforce. Thankyou for the correction.
The Samba guy (Andrew Tridgell) did `rsync`.
