       NEW USERS  -  The NEW USERS section controls how your system
       will treat new users.   You can configure the  following for
       new users:


       Security   : This is the security level (0 to 64000) that
                    will be granted to a new user  who  logs  on
                    for the first time.   If  you  run a private
                    system,  and do not want to allow  new users
                    to  log  on,  set  this field to  zero.   In
                    this case,  the user  is notified  that  the
                    system is private and is disconnected.

       Flags      : The  4  flag  entries   determine  the  flag
                    configuration that will be  granted  to  new
                    users.  See the section on  SECURITY  for  a
                    full description of the security system.

       Credit     : This sets  the  new  user's  initial  credit
                    against   sending  netmail   messages.   The
                    NETWORKING  section provides full  detail on
                    setting up netmail costings.

       Group      : This is an arbitrary  number  between 0  and
                    255 you  may  assign new users.   It  allows
                    you to segregate users into separate groups,
                    which then can  be  used  in  various   menu
                    types.  (see  the  menu  command  list   for
                    further details)

       ANSI       : Determines  whether a new user may use  ANSI
                    codes (Yes/No/Ask).

       AVATAR     : Determines whether a new user may use AVATAR
                    codes (Yes/No/Ask).

       Clrscr     : Determines whether a  new  user  would  like
                    screen clearing codes enabled  (Yes/No/Ask).

       More       : Determines whether the new user  would  like
                    to be prompted with "More Y/N" at the end of
                    each screen page (Yes/No/Ask).

       Sub days   : Number  of  days subscription new users  are
                    allocated.

       Data       : If enabled,  new  users  are asked for their
       phone        Data Phone number.

       Voice      : If enabled,  new  users  are asked for their
       phone        Voice Phone number.

       One word   : If disabled, new users will be  required  to
       names        enter their name as at least 2 words with  a
                    total length of  at least three  characters.
                    Note that this restriction only  applies  to
                    new users;  a  user  already  in  the   user
                    database  may  log  on   using  his  or  her
                    "handle".

       Handle     : If this  option is  enabled,  new users will
                    be asked to choose an optional unique handle
                    or alias.   This  is  saved  as part of  the
                    user's  record and may be used  to  log onto
                    the system  later, and to  send and  receive
                    mail.

       Birthdate  : If enabled, new users will  be  prompted  to
                    enter  their  full  birthdate.  RemoteAccess
                    will  attempt  to intelligently  identify if
                    the date supplied is legitimate.

       Hotkeys    : RemoteAccess   may  be  configured to behave
                    either like QuickBBS  with hot-keyed  menus,
                    or   like   Opus  with   command    stacking
                    facilities (Yes/No/Ask).

       FS msg     : FS  MSG  VIEW,   when enabled,  will display
       view         messages to the user using a "fixed  header"
                    format, designed  for  enhanced readability.

       FS msg     : The FS MSG EDIT setting will determine if RA
       edit         asks the new users if they would like to use
                    the external message editor (Yes/No/Ask).

       IEMSI      : When  a  new  user  connects to your  system
                    using  IEMSI   (  explained  fully  in   the
                    reference section of this manual),   RA will
                    skip the regular  new user questionnaire  as
                    it   can   determine   the   user's   screen
                    parameters,  location,  password  etc. auto-
                    matically.   If   this  option  is  disabled
                    however,  all new users  will be  forced  to
                    answer the regular questionnaire manually.

       Language   : This option sets the  default  language  for
                    new users before they select their preferred
                    language.  If  this option  is set  to zero,
                    the new  users  will  not  be  asked   which
                    language they wish to use as their default.

       Date       : If set to "ASK" new users are able to select
       format       which date  format they  would like  to  use
                    when  entering  dates  and  when  dates  are
                    displayed. The available formats are:

                                     DD-MM-YY
                                     MM-DD-YY
                                     YY-MM-DD
                                     DD-Mmm-YY

                    The sysop  may  choose to force a particular
                    date format by selecting the format  in this
                    field.

       Cap        : If enabled  this will force RA to capitalise
       location     the  users  location,  when  entered.
