System Name …………….. The name of your BBS. Will be written to

                            EXITINFO.BBS.  Be sure this matches any
                            "keys" you might have for any door
                            programs.  This information is also used
                            for your key file when you register, so be
                            sure whatever you put here matches what you
                            fill out on your registration form EXACTLY!

Location ……………….. The City where your BBS is located. This

                            is used for the QWK packets created by
                            your BBS so it's a good idea not to leave
                            it blank when you set up your BBS.

Phone Number ……………. The primary phone number of your BBS. Also

                            used for QWK packets so be sure to not
                            leave this field empty.

SysOp Name ……………… The name of the SysOp. This also will be

                            written to EXITINFO.BBS This information is
                            also used for your key file when you
                            register, so be sure whatever you put here
                            matches what you fill out on your
                            registration form EXACTLY!

Default Origin Line ……… Default origin line, used for Echomail if

                            none is specified when setting up your
                            echomail areas. (more about this later).

Number of Nodes …………. Used for multi-line systems. Enter the

                            maximum number of users allowed to log in
                            at the same time (max. 255)
