  • ;UEDIT command

    From Warp 4@VERT/OTHETAX to All on Thu Mar 7 22:09:59 2019
    Hi all!

    Trying to edit a user account via telnet under the latest SBBS/Linux and when I go to enter the ;UEDIT command at the main menu prompt (classic command shell)
    nothing happens and I get returned to the main menu. Is there something I am missing here? Is there a way to get a help file displayed with sysop level
    commands by any chance?

    I just tried it here and it works normally. Mine is version
    3.17c, upgraded to the latest development version about a week
    ago.

    Maybe you should try an update?

    It sounds like perhaps you're not logged in with a sysop (level 90+) user account? The '!' key should display the sysop menu from the main and file menus.

    Ok, yeah, ried that but I think I messed up something when creating the main sysop account. All is well with the world now, though.
