Hello Aly

This is an extract from the fbb/linfbb documation


 A built-in White Pages server (WP) will provide information from the
database in response to a
remote request. This server is described in paragraph xx.
All files used by White Pages are in the FBB\SYSTEM\WP subdirectory.
Trace for WP updates (for debugging etc):
in the \windows\winfbb.ini file, add the following line in the main section:
TraceWp=1
You can replace 1 with 2 or 3. 3 gives the maximum information.
A file WP.DBG will be created in the WP directory.
UPDATE REQUESTS
The  database  receives  information  from  three  sources.  The  s
indicated on each line of the update message as a suffix to the callsign:-
- The /U suffix denotes that the information in this line of the   update is
- User-Generated as is
therefore assumed to be CORRECT. This information is collected by the BBS
- whenever the User
responds to the N, NH, NQ or NZ commands. The date associated with the
- information is the date
when the User disconnects that session.
- The /G suffix denotes that the information in this line has been gathered
- y examining the header
of a message to GUESS at which BBS the sender is registered. The HomeBBS of
- the User is
assumed to be the BBS shown in the first R: header line. The date associated
- with this information
is the date shown on this R: header line.
- The /I suffix denotes information about forwarding BBS's taken from the R:
- header lines. This
information can consist of the HA (the Hierarchical Address), the QTH
- (within brackets) and the
zip code (following the Z:). The date of this information is again taken
- from the R: header line of
the BBS in question.
When the BBS is idle the Database Manager is called and the update
information detailed above is
processed.
