Thank you, got the reply back properly. I did manage to get the bbslist importing also. Perhaps when you have a moment you might help/advise me sharing user,files,messages data across all of these 'instances' ?

I don't think I'd recommend that. A lot of changes have changed since v2.30 - you could migrate that data to v3.18, but there's no backwards migration or synchronization support. It might kind of / sort of work, but many things (e.g. message scan pointers, user passwords) won't be shared. There were earlier versions of v3.xx that were 100% backward compatible, but that's no longer true.

I was thinking just on the MuseumBox that houses 2.30c and below. Just for Shit's And Giggles, I decided that v3.00 is considered 'new school' so, the oldest I want in the Museum is 2.30c since it can manage the Y2K issues and v200g; v210a; v220a are accessed via Xtrn Doors. Though one would have to log onto each board again I want the user/msg bases shared. I have each ver instance looking at \sbbs\data\ for messages but the user base doesn't seem to be shareable?

The only 'real' issue I am having is that when returning from a live demo the remote keyboard is disabled for the connection so I have to intervene on the local auto spy shell. oh well, it's only a couple days old so I will figure it
out

I *think* the userbase is shareable amoung all those old v2.x versions. A lot changed from v1 to v2, so I wouldn't attempt sharing config or data files between v1 and v2.

Yeah, I don't know your configuration so can't really help there. If you have specifics, let me know.

the live demo of other vers is simply setting up each board and matching the node(s) comports the same across all versions. The door.bat takes %# as node, cd's to version.path\node%# directory and calls 'version.path\exec\sbbs xd c19200' live demo door scfg is multiuser swap ... anyway, I know you are more interested in dev updating sbbs3.18* ...

No, I meant share the live data - pointing multiple instances to the same data directory by setting each's SCFG->System->Advanced Options->Data Directory to piont to the same location.
