      Change security level 0 to be more forgiving · f867a667

      changed from 0 to 1:

       timepercall

       postsperday

      There are restrictions to remove access to these features if that's what the
      sysop desires.
      
      This will allow unauthenticated mail clients to post a single message (per day)
      to a sub-board, when there's a posting alias set up (sub:* in alias.cfg).

      Don't install the fonts to the syncterm.ini, Deuce says they confuse sysops.
      
      Renamed the setup.exe file due to warning from ISS about security concerns.
      
      Tested on Windows 11.

      Only use RtlGetVersion for Windows 10/11 · 0c385ef2
      Rob Swindell authored
      This function appears to truncate the service pack info for Windows 7 (6.1):
      "Windows NT Version 6.1 (Build 7601) Service Pack 1 x86" became:
      "Windows NT Version 6.1 (Build 7601) S x86"
      
      Don't close the handle to ntdll.dll (hey, that's stupid filename, Microsoft!)
      since the module could be unloaded from the address space and then a call to
      the captured procedure address could/would crash. This handle will be closed
      when the process terminates anyway.
      
      While we're here, correct the Windows 6.1 -> 7.0 numbering. That looks better:
      "Windows NT Version 7.0 (Build 7601) Service Pack 1 x86"
      
      Something should probably be done for Windows 6.2 -> 8.0 numbering too, but I
      don't have a VM handy. Is anyone actually still running Windows 8.x?

      Move the #pragma warning to just before the call to GetVersionEx() · d58cc13f
      Rob Swindell authored
      Needed for building sbbsexec.dll
      
      I guess #pramga warning only affects the following source line.
      
      Apparently we're disabling this warning effectively via other means in all
      other MSVC projects.

      This is fun Microsoft. If Windows 11 is actually Windows 10.22000+, what will
      Windows 12 be? No one can guess.

      Add @-codes to display dates/times in UTC · 9f2c2e51
      Rob Swindell authored
      When the system time zone is not UTC, but the sysop wants to display some
      dates and times in UTC, they can now use these @-codes to do that:
      - TIME_UTC
      - DATE_UTC
      - UTC:fmt
      - DATETIME_UTC
      - MSG_DATE_UTC

      Go back to using non-blocking periodic/polling user.tab lock attempts · d0e0e8c9
      Rob Swindell authored
      This partially reverts commit 03b84df8.
      
      I observed deadlocks on Linux attempting locks of user.tab on Samba share,
      which also deadlocked my Windows nodes. Interestingly, the Windows nodes
      never deadlocked on their own (after a week of testing) when using blocking
      locks.
      
      Double the frequency of lock retries - this has helped reduce the observed
      user.tab lock failures on Vertrauen.

      Add "Auto" Local Time Zone option and make that the default for new install · 5434b904
      Rob Swindell authored
      As Deon pointed out in DOVE-Net / Synchronet Discussion, having a local time
      zone configured with a different UTC offset than your system time zone can
      produce strange/unexpected results (e.g. displayed age of messages). Since
      it's possible that not all sysops will complete the configuration wizard or
      actually set their timezone to the correct value (and ignore the startup
      warning message), we now make the default Local Time Zone to be
      "automatic" - query the OS every time the local time zone is needed/used.
      
      This has the downside of only storing (e.g. in message headers) the UTC
      offset of the current time zone (not the time zone abbreviation/name as
      encoded by SMB). I considered making an option to dynamically figure out
      the actual time zone (not just the UTC offset) and while I think that's
      doable, Deon just wanted his UTC offset (e.g. UTC+11:00) and not his
      time zone name (e.g. AEDT) stored in message headers, so this setting

      Updated for webv4 and fix off-by-one error reported by LaF0rge · 7a02ba30
      Rob Swindell authored
      Make the scheme ("http://" or "https://") configurable via rss.ini, default is
      now "https://".
      
      Make the message link format somewhat configurable via rss.ini (hopefully to
      support some other/future web message reading interface should there be one).
      
      Reportedly, the MsgBase.get_msg_header/body() calls of the "total_msgs" offset
      were logging errors? I was not able to reproduce this (the !hdr check seemed
      to be successfully ignoring such cases), but in any case, message offsets are
      0-based, so this was definitely an off-by-one issue, even if it was a silent
      failure for everyone else. <shrug>
