-There're some tools for transfering data from ColaBBS
-(http://lh.twbbs.org/) to PttBBS (http://ptt.cc). Since ColaBBS
-doesn't provide its source code or any file spec, there's no shortcut
-for this. I hacked the data structures with only VERY LITTLE
-information directly from files, and these may NOT work. You sould NOT
-use if you don't have programming background, or contact(make an
-offer?) me in2 _AT_ in2home.org.
-the Id of this file is $Id$ .
-
-please follow the step:
-1. backup your ColaBBS.
-2. install a new PttBBS
- (see https://opensvn.csie.org/pttbbs/trunk/pttbbs/docs/INSTALL for
- details)
- please do NOT do the following to a existed bbs!
-3. shutdown the bbs and clean all shared-memory if it's running.
-4. copy all .c and .pl programs into your ~bbs/pttbbs/util/. then
- compile them: `make cntDIR cntbrd cnthomeDIR cntpasswd`
-5. transfer boards:
- cd _COLABBS_/boards/; \
- perl -e "system('mv $_ ~/boards/'.
- substr($_, 0, 1).'/'.$_) foreach( <*> )"
-
- cd /home/bbs/boards; perl cntarticle.pl boards/*/*; \
- apply "mv %1/.DIR %1/.DIR.colabbs; cntDIR < %1/.DIR.colabbs >
- %1/.DIR" */*
- cntbrd < _COLABBS_/boards/.BOARDS > ~/.BRD
-6. transfer mails
- cd _COLABBS_/home; cnthomedir.pl
- cd ~/home/;
- apply "mv %1/mail/* %1/" */*; \
- apply "mv %1/mail/.DIR %1/.DIR.colabbs" */*; \
- apply "rmdir %1/mail" */*; \
- apply "cnthomeDIR < %1/.DIR.colabbs > %1/.DIR" */* ; \
- cntarticle.pl */*
-7. transfer password file:
- cntpasswd home/*/*/USERDATA.DAT > ~/.PASSWDS; \
- tunepasswd
-8. tranfer man
- use cntDIR to convert .DIR and cntarticle.pl for articles.
