WWIV BBS v3.21d
                     Copyright (C) 1986 by Wayne Bell


INTRODUCTION:
=============

Version 3.21  has been  tested out  pretty thoroughly,  and no  way
has been found that remote callers can cause any harm to the computer
itself,  or any data outside  the BBS.   If  you give  other people
high access, it will be possible for them to erase data  from the
BBS (ie,  messages and  files for downloading), but  there is NO WAY
they can, say, destroy WordStar documents you have in a different
directory.

If you have any questions or problems with WWIV (or if you just want
to call), you can call the original WWIV at 213-208-6689.

INSTALLATION:
============

You should skim through the entire installation section before
beginning.

On your  hard disk, create a directory (such as BBS) that is a
sub-directory of the root directory.  Now, copy all the board files
into  that directory.
Also copy the Turbo Pascal compiler into this  directory.

You should now enter the turbo  pascal compiler,  and run  "INIT.PAS".
This program will  initialize the  necessary BBS files and directories.
You will be asked which com port (1 or 2) your modem  is hooked  up to,
and what its maximum speed  of operation  is.  For example,
if you have a Smartmodem 1200 hooked up to COM1:, you are using com
port 1 and your modem speed is 1200. 

You now need to compile to disk the main BBS program.
To do  this, compile BBS.PAS to  a .COM  file, then compile
DLOADS.PAS and DOS.PAS to .CHN files.
