SuperBBS 1.17-3 KEYGENv2 by akacastor 2024-04-10

cross-posted from: lemmy.world/post/14144651

I’ve been getting into cracking DOS software, focusing on BBS software, doors, utilities, etc. My latest project is a keygen (registration # and key file generator) for SuperBBS 1.17-3. I understand that, like a lot of BBS software, the source code and registration tools for SuperBBS were lost to time. You can download SuperBBS 1.17-3 from Jason Scott’s BBS Documentary website: software.bbsdocumentary.com/IBM/DOS/SUPERBBS/

The keygen ‘SBBSKEY2.ZIP’ is available for download in file area 4 (cracks) of Another Millennium BBS, another.tel port 23.

</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">The SBBS-KEY keygen will generate a registration number to enter in CONFIG and
</span><span style="color:#323232;">a .SCC file that must be placed in the SBBS directory.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">You _MUST_ do _BOTH_ of:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">1) Enter Sysop Name, BBS Name, and Reg # under Registration in CONFIG.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">and
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">2) Place the generated .SCC file in your SBBS directory (where BBS.EXE lives).
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">The timestamp of the .SCC file cannot be altered!  SuperBBS includes the .SCC
</span><span style="color:#323232;">file timestamp in its verification checks.
