I'd like to let you folks in on a little secret, for providing seemless access
to USENET News on a PC-Based BBS system PCBoard is a pretty good
choice.

I know that I'll receive a million flames from Waffle sysops for saying this,
but the plain fact is Waffle isn't a very attractive system.  I can only speak
from the USER perspective, however the Waffle systems I've been on tend
to be very bland, and difficult to use.  That could be the fault of the sysop,
but thats what I know.

PCBoard, on the other hand (when used in conjunction with uuPCB) lets
you run a SOLID BBS system - complete with great ANSI screens, good
user security options, great file areas, etc...  I am sure that all of this
can be accomplished with a Waffle system, but that fact is that with
respect to these "standard" PC-based BBS functions, Waffle is lacking.

So don't shoot down the folks (like me) who have chosen to run a PC
based system, using PCboard.  It is a solid package with great customer
support that is flexible enough to do ANYTHING that CAN be done on
a PC-based system.  And the fact is, a good amount of my caller base
(which is nearing 400 - for a free system, that aint too bad!) use Amigas,
Mac's, Atari's, and Unix boxes.  I doubt they THEY believe that the PC
is the only computer system in existence -- Hell, I'm impressed with
features offered by ALL of these great platforms.  I chose PC's because
I can do more for what I need to, at a very good price.

If anything, I think its GREAT that guys like me can offer callers access
to the USENET from a PC-based system in such a seemless manner.
Doesn't it benifit us all when connectivity to this network so easily
spans different platforms.

The more the merrier, I say!

Cheers,
Howie

I dunno. rn and SCO unix seems to be even more seamless.

I run Waffle myself, for precisely the reasons you listed: it's not pretty
and somewhat difficult for the uninitiated to navigate. You gotta want to
call here, I'm not in the business of catering to anyone. To each their own.

It's out there.  There are versions running on the NeXT and on PC's running
Linux.  I played with the Linux version myself, but couldn't really use it
as my modem is defective and has trouble answering the phone.

You can get the source to the linux version from tsx-11.mit.edu:
/pub/linux/sources/usr.bin/bt3023.T.Z.  A UNIX version of ParseList is
in /pub/linux/sources/usr.bin/plst.T.Z.

It's pretty generic to most POSIX-type unices, so it might work for you.
Comes up in windowed mode and everything.

Yeh, really... We'll give him/her the benefit of doubt that he/she doesn't
know what ftp is. (Poor soul... can you imagine life without ftp?) ;)

BTW everyone, my original request still stands:

Can anyone point me towards an anonymous ftp site where I can find some
bbs door programs? Anything is fine (games or not) as long as it works with
MAXIMUS-CBCS v2.00 (MS-DOS based).

Thanks in advance!

The Vault BBS in the Twin Cities, MN has a BIG selection of on-line games.
 I know at least two of your list is there because that is where I got my
programs from.  The phone number is (612)754-2238.  That is the number to
Node 2.  You will only have 5 min on it (sorry, I do not know the number
to node 1).  Asking Mary The Witch, the sysop, she will tell you the
number to node 1.

Hope this helps....

X00 can be configures to have comports at all posible adresses at all possible
IRQ-lines. Simply do something like this while loading X00.SYS or X00.EXE
(X00.EXE can not be hiloaded :( ):

DEVICE=X00.SYS 2=3E8,5

This will assume that port 2 (=COM3) is at hexadecimal adress 3E8 and will use
IRQ-line 5. You can assign almost any portnumber to the adress. Remember:
PORT(n)=COM(n+1) !

BTW: the 'E' parameter won;t work when u r using other paramters too.. So the
loading will take 3 seconds longer...

Well, it should work.. Telling Waffle to use com3 should work now... BTW: it is
all in de Doc's: X00USER.DOC.... RTFM!

Did you have another uucico run after you saw 'rmail nuts!happy', but
before you went looking for it?

If so, waffle happily passed it on to nuts (if you are connected to
it) or sent it on to your smarthost.  Waffle does not log "pass
through" mail.

Someone posted a patched version of rmail that logged *every* piece
of mail several months ago.  But I lost my copy.  Does anybody now
where to find it or if it works with 1.65?
