6.9 Scripts +

+ +

The directory /spider/scripts is used for several things. Firstly it +contains a file called startup that can be used to call in any changes +to the cluster from the default settings on startup. Examples of this +include how many spots it is possible to get with the sh/dx command, +whether you want registration/passwords to be permanently on etc. An +example file is shown below and is included in the distribution as +startup.issue. +

+

+
+#
+# startup script example
+#
+# set maximum no of spots allowed to 100
+# set/var $Spot::maxspots = 1
+#
+# Set registration on
+# set/var $main::reqreg = 1
+#
+# Set passwords on
+# set/var $main::passwdreq = 1
+#
+
+
+

Secondly, it is used to store the login scripts for users. Currently +this can only be done by the sysop but it is envisaged that eventually +users will be able to set their own. An example is included in the +distibution but here is a further example. +
