Run Your Own Bulletin Board System

====== Legacy/X BBS Installation ======

Currently, I do not release the latest engine(s) on github.com - instead I have you download from http://pcboard.bbs.io/ from hidden URLs. I do this, as I want to control registration of the product, and manage any complications ~ as we are still in an Alpha life cycle.

===== Windows =====

The first steps you need to undertake to get Legacy/X running on your system are:
  - Visit www.github.com/3FLLC/ModernPascal and download everything for your OS.
  - Once you have downloaded the zip files - unpack them to **C:\SOURCE\MP3\**
  - Next, you will want to download INSTALL.ZIP from this site and unpack to the previous folder
    - **mp2 install**
  - The installer will check for existing installations and upgrade otherwise:
    - Enter your BBS Name
    - Enter the Sysop Name
    - Enter the __**Port**__ to Accept Callers
    - Now the installer will fetch the latest source and install in C:\LEGACYX\
    - Once the files are downloaded, the installer starts CodeRunner
      - You can connect to your BBS at 127.0.0.1 on the Port you selected
      - After creating your account you will need to setup your Internet router
    - You can run setup to update your account to Sysop security level
      - You will want to follow the [[setup_main_menu|Setup Main Menu]] tutorial
