but haveing problem with login in per my name ie Ian Segers unknown user
but sneaky working fine both names were working fine before I did the above upgrade
what have I done wrong or can I only use one name
I now I could just download sbbs317b.zip
and install it from scratch but don't really want to do that
every time there is a update
and I am using c:\sbbs\data\user\name.dat user.dat
I did read a while back per user.js or same thing like that
unsure if this would make ant difference to my Ian Segers
but haveing problem with login in per my name ie Ian Segers unknown user

Check SCFG->Nodes->Node1->Toggle Options->"Allow Login by Real Name".
If that is set to "No", then you (and your users) would have to login
with their user-id/alias.
what have I done wrong or can I only use one name
You should be able to login with your "real name" if you have the
option above set as I mentioned.

Hi Digital Man
but haveing problem with login in per my name ie Ian Segers unknown user but sneaky working fine both names were working fine before I did the above upgrade
Check SCFG->Nodes->Node1->Toggle Options->"Allow Login by Real Name". If that is set to "No", then you (and your users) would have to login with their user-id/alias.
"Allow Login by Real Name" is set to yes,if I change it to no, even after closing/opening
synchronet Control panel make no diffrence.

as above
I now I could just download sbbs317b.zip
and install it from scratch but don't really want to do that
every time there is a update
If I deleted the bbs I have now, and reinstall say sbbs317a.zip from as
a fresh install it would work with my full name or if I restored my
backup it work fine.
and I am using c:\sbbs\data\user\name.dat user.dat
I don't understand.
just trying to point out that my user names are in that directory
but if that were it meant to be that's fine,
I did read a while back per user.js or same thing like that

trying to ask is there a user.js that I meant to be using
that's all

It sounds like you want it to set "Yes", not "No".
Hi Digital
closing/opening
synchronet Control panel make no diffrence.
It sounds like you want it to set "Yes", not "No".
It doesn't work either way Yes or No
I tried a few things but still no, so thank you for your help with this
I am going to restore back to when it was working and perhaps
a do a fresh install of sbbs317b.zip in the near future.

Okay, but I don't see that making any difference. Do you have a custom login
module maybe? Did you try logging on a different user (with their real name)
