-Upgrading to Synchronet BBS for Win32 v3.0b
-===========================================
-
-This is an UPGRADE ONLY, so you must have Synchronet (v2.3 or 
-v3.0a) already installed before you can continue. A full
-Synchronet installation package can be obtained via FTP or 
-Telnet/Zmodem from vert.synchro.net.
-
-This version has been tested with the following operating
-systems: Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT4, and Windows 2000.
-
-
-Configuration Files
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-The following files will be over-written by this upgrade, so
-if you have customized them, it is highly recommended that you
-make a BACK-UP of the files before continuing this installation:
-
-	SBBS\CTRL\TEXT.DAT		(Text Strings)
-	SBBS\CTRL\GURU.DAT		(Guru Brain)
-	SBBS\CTRL\ATTR.CFG		(Default Colors)
-	SBBS\CTRL\ALIAS.CFG		(Internet Mail Aliases)
-	SBBS\CTRL\FTPALIAS.CFG		(FTP Filename Aliases)
-	SBBS\TEXT\MENU\LOGON.ASC	(Logon Screen)
-	SBBS\TEXT\MENU\EXEMPT.ASC	(Exemption Descriptions)
-	SBBS\TEXT\MENU\EDITOR.ASC	(Internal Editor Menu)
-	SBBS\TEXT\MENU\MSGSCAN.ASC	(Message Scan Menu)
-	SBBS\TEXT\MENU\MAILREAD.ASC	(Mail Read Menu)
-
-Two of the unused lines in CTRL\TEXT.DAT (lines 62 and 74) are
-now used in v3. If you're going to allow auto-logon by IP or
-sending of Internet e-mail, then you'll need to use the TEXT.DAT
-included (or modify your own). If you're still going to be using 
-v2.3c (or earlier), you'll want to eliminate one of the %s's from 
-the MsgAttr line in your TEXT.DAT.
-
-If you do not want these files installed (you're upgrading a
-previous installation of SBBS v3 for example), choose "Custom
-Installation" and disable the "Configuration Files" from the
-install set.
-
-
-Command Shell Updates
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-The following files will be over-written by this upgrade, so
-if you have customized them, it is highly recommended that you
-make a BACK-UP of the files before continuing this installation:
-
-	SBBS\EXEC\RENEGADE.SRC		(Renegade Command Shell)
-	SBBS\EXEC\RENEGADE.BIN		(Renegade Command Shell)
-
-
-SBBSCTRL
-~~~~~~~~
-SBBSCTRL is the Sysop's console for SBBS v3. You still must use
-SCFG to configure the BBS options shared between the new and old
-versions (this will be replaced with a GUI Configuration program
-at some point in the future).
-
-The installation program will create a short-cut to SBBSCTRL.EXE
-on your desktop and in your startup folder (so Synchronet will
-start automatically during boot-up).
-
-Auto-logon by IP is enabled in SBBSCTRL->Telnet->Configure and
-only users with the 'V' exemption can use this feature.
-
-
-Update Your Configuration
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Before you run your BBS with v3, you'll need to go through all
-of your command lines in SCFG (SBBSCTRL->BBS->Configure) and
-make sure there aren't any hard-coded relative paths.
-
-For example, you must change SCFG->File Options->Testable Files
-       %!pkzip -z %f < ..\text\zipmsg.txt
-to:    %!pkzip -z %f < %zzipmsg.txt
-
-If you have any Baja modules that assume the current directory
-(use relative paths), they need to be fixed too.
-
-Relative paths in "data directories" in SCFG are okay. Only
-executable command lines need to be changed to absolute paths
-("%n..\xtrn\etc" is okay).
-
-Also, make sure that all of your external programs either use DOS
-I/O interception (XSDK/WWIV doors) or utilize a FOSSIL driver
-(i.e. use FDSZ or CEXYZ instead of DSZ). The COM ports and baud
-rates configured for your doors are irrelevant.
-
-
-Known Issues
-~~~~~~~~~~~~
-o DOSKEY must be loaded in your autoexec.bat for the DOS shell to
-  work right (Windows 95/98)
-o Backspace doesn't work right in DOS shell (Windows 95/98)
-o Can't ;RERUN v3 nodes
-o QNET.BIN doesn't work (see DOVE-NET.ZIP for alternatives)
-o First node (set in SBBSCTRL) configuration is used for all nodes
-  (this is actually intentional, i.e. not a bug)
-o First node's temp directory must be set to "TEMP\"
