Modified Files:

Log Message:
Some people are still having problems with CRAM-MD5 authentication
(e.g. latest reports are problems with outbound connections to
mbcico/1.0.6.8 with CRAM-MD5 authentication failures) - so added a new
per-link configuration key: "BinkpPlainAuthOnly" (default values is false).
Set this value to true to use *only* plain-text password authentication
for both inbound and outbound connections with this node. This should help debug password issues, at minimum, and might work-around CRAM-MD5 incompatibilities with some mailers, if that is in fact the issue.
EchoCfg will need a way to set this option, but for now, just set it by
hand in the sbbsecho.ini (for each [node] section where you need it).

If you set BinkpPlainAuthOnly to true, do *not* set BinkpAllowPlainAuth
or BinkpAllowPlainText to false - that would be bad.

It's a human-readable data file (in .ini file format), so it's pretty self-explanatory.

inbound_auth_cb(): report a "Password mismatch" error (over BinkP) if
one of the configured linked-nodes matching the remote address(es) is set for CRAM-MD5 passwords only and a plain-text password was provided by the remote. Previously, the function would log a warning:
"CRAM-MD5 required (and not provided) by <addr>" but succeeed (the actual password value was not check) and it woudl flag the session as "non-secure" (sending M_OK non-secure), looking like this on the remote side:
Authentication successful: non-secure
and any received files would go into the configured non-secure inbound.
This may explain why some sysops sometimes get unexplained files in their non-secure inbound (looking for "non-secure" in the logs should confirm).
Now, you should still see (on the answering side) the log message:
"CRAM-MD5 required (and not provided) ...", but it'll also send a M_ERR Passowrd mismatch error to the remote, thus ending the session.

Log Message:
Since Revision 1.36 of load/fidocfg.js (Jan-8-2019), a blank/unconfigured
BinkP session password ("SessionPwd") in sbbsecho.ini would cause BinkIT/BinkP to behave as though a session password was specified. The reason for the change to fidocfg.js (specifying a default value for "SessionPwd" as a blank string) was to force the return value to a string so that numeric passwords were not returned as numbers but rather strings.
The binkit.js and binkp.js code assumed that a blank password would be 'undefined' and not a blank string.
This commit changes binkit.js and binkp.js to treat all of the following session password values as "no password" with respect to BinkP:
- false
- undefined
- blank string ('')

No problem. It's unfortunate that I have to touch base in so many places to add an option like that. Perhaps if echocfg was re-written in JS that would allow more code reuse between BinkIT and echocfg. Not going to happen anytime soon (if every) - but it's an idea.

Okay. Hopefully it's useful to somebody someday. I made it global because that's the only way to tweak the capabilities/options for incoming connections.

Okay. Hopefully it's useful to somebody someday. I made it global because that's the only way to tweak the capabilities/options for incoming connections.

that's how binkd does it, too... the following is from the debian wheezy man page for binkd... note the -r and -m options :)

-C Binkd running with this option will reread the configuration file if it is changed. The modification time of the configuration file is checked every 60 seconds and on every incoming and outgoing connection.

-c Start client only. Normally Binkd starts both server and client.

-D Run Binkd as a daemon (cannot be used for client-only mode).

-i Run Binkd from inetd.

-P Poll a node. An empty *.ilo file in the outbound will be created, which will force Binkd to connect to and to receive mail from the node ( Binkd will also add "Node node * -" record to the table-of-nodes in Binkd's memory if there is no entry for the node in the configuration file).

-p Start client manager, process polls, quit if the queue seems to be empty after the next rescan. Implies -c.

-q Quiet mode. Turns off printq, conlog and percents statements of configuration.

-r Disable crypt traffic.

-s Start server only. Normally Binkd starts both server and client.

-v Be verbose. This flag can be specified multiple times for even higher verbosity. Binkd -v will dump binkd's version and quit. Binkd -vvv binkd.cfg will dump binkd's configuration and still work.

-m Disable CRAM-MD5 authorization. Implies -r.

-n doing not call or listen (only check cfg and make polls)

-h Print help message.

Allow config file (alternate sbbsecho .ini file) to be passed on cmdline

Back in the day, some sysops used to use multiple SBBSecho configuration files. Nobody seems to do that these days, but its certainly a viable solution (or should be) for multiple FTNs on a single BBS. Anyway, this enhancement allows BinkIT to use an alternate SBBSecho configuration file (though it must still
be located in the ctrl dir).
