# bulb
|
|
|
|
A simple bulletin board for your server. Users of the system can post and read
|
|
messages using the "bulb" command. You can also set up multiple boards.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
The reccomended way to use this program is to have the executable owned by the
|
|
user `bulb`, with the setuid bit enabled. Then, create a list of boards located
|
|
at `/var/bulb/` which are also owned by `bulb`. This will allow all users to use
|
|
the program to post on boards without allowing them to directly edit their
|
|
contents, thereby preventing them from mischeviously re-writing chat history.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
To list available boards:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
bulb
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To post a message:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
bulb post Message text
|
|
bulb post -b <board-name> Message text
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To read recent messages:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
bulb read
|
|
bulb read -b <board-name>
|
|
bulb read -n <message-count>
|
|
```
