Okay... I don't want to start a flame war.  We need software and hardware to
support at least 16 lines.  I've heard of Major BBS (with Galacticomm boxes)...
and PC Board (I don't know what hardware is needed). Now my question is as
follows:
* Do these packages support Usenet news?
* What sort of support hardware is involved(ie. Galacticomm boxes? other
alternatives...)  How much does it cost?
* How much does the software and hardware req'd for 8 lines cost?
* Is it easily configurable?
* How much memory would be required on then 486 for 8 lines
* Do many doors exist for these packages...

I need prices and answers to the above questions... I'm not trying to start a
flame war =).

Thanks!

Hi there Chris.  I run a PCBoard System in New Zealand and am very
pleased with its capabilities.  I don't know a hec of a lot about Major
BBS unfortunately.

-> * Do these packages support Usenet news?

As you can gather, I am sending you this article from my PCBoard System
so it does support Usenet News using a program called uuPCB which allows
you to import/export Usenet news and email quite happily.

-> * What sort of support hardware is involved(ie. Galacticomm boxes?
-> other alternatives...)  How much does it cost?

Clark Development have a PCBoard/M version for running 8 lines off one
multiport serial card on one machine using one interrupt.  Haven't tried
it but is supposed to work very reliably.  I gather a 486 which lots of
RAM would be required though.  as for prices, perhaps someone else has
an idea of the $US cost.

-> * Is it easily configurable?

The easiest :-)... has massive support for doors and more systems run it
worldwide than any other BBS software, more doors and utilities are
available specifically for PCBoard than any other BBS software also.

-> * How much memory would be required on then 486 for 8 lines

PCBoard itself can run 1 copy in about 300k... and it swaps out when it
runs doors to leave about 7k of it's base code in memory.... a few megs
under your favourite multitasker should do it.

-> * Do many doors exist for these packages...

As mentioned above, there are more available for PCBoard than any other
software.

-> I need prices and answers to the above questions... I'm not trying to

No problems... prices are as follows:

PCBoard 10 User is $340 US
PCBoard 100 User is $680 US

and unsure about the PCBoard/M version but I understand it's reasonably
priced.

hope that gives you some idea.. no flame wars started here :-)

Cheers

Check out Maximus.  From what I hear, it is relatively easy to setup.
There are many features making system administration very simple and
fast.  It has built-in capability for echomail, netmail.  .QWK-support
is already included, a very good file management system, etc.

Hope this helps.

I use Intel 14.4ex modems ($260 through the sysop program) which are very
reliable.  I also use ZyXEL U-1496E modems ($300) when I need to add
fax or voice mail capability.  The ZyXEL modems were rather well and give
you the added bonus of being about to thumb your nose at Hayes' guard time

Okay... here's the situation:

We've been running a C-NET BBS with two lines for a couple of months now. A
couple of weeks ago we upgraded from 2.32 to 2.41... things stayed fairly
stable.  We then added a third line to the BBS... and lately we've been having
system crashes more than twice daily.  Our hardware is as follows:

* GVP-I/O board running a 14.4K modem and a serial port to another computer
(local)
* We're running another 14.4K from the serial port on the Amiga
* The third line we've added is a 2400 b. modem plugging into one of the ports.

We've got an Amiga 2000 with a '030 accelerator, 6 megs of Ram, 2 105Meg SCSI's
and 1 800 Meg SCSI... 
Some of the stuff online that seems to cause occaisional problems is our UseNET
reading program (CNET <-> uucp shell) v 6.1a written by Brian Clark.

We desperately need to solve our crashing problems!! It's becoming a chore to
nurse the BBS constantly watching for it to crash!

ANY suggestions, or hints as to how to solve the problem would be HUGELY
appreciated!

Thanks.

Hello Richard,

 RJH> The title says it all.  Is Bitnet solely a commercial e-mail service?

As far as I know BITNET cannot be used for commercial purposes.

Here's some history:

        BITNET began in 1981 as a small network of IBM computers based at the
        City University of New York (CUNY). Today BITNET connects over 1,300
        sites and 2,400 computers in 38 countries. It is made up of three
        separate networks connecting academic and research organizations.
        BITNET itself consists of BITNET (US and Mexico), NetNorth (Canada),
        and EARN (European Academic Research Network). BITNET is run by EDUCOM
        in Washington, DC, USA, and is part of CREN. BITNET members must be
        members of CREN.

Retrieved this information from "!%@:: A Directory of Electronic Mail Addressing
and Networks" by Donnalyn Frey and Rick Adams, published in 1990. So this
information might be just a bit out of date.
Well, maybe the folks at BITNET, reading this newsgroup, will provide some up-
to-date information?

Anyway, you could try to freq (=file request; Fidonet terminology) some text
files from NETSERV@bitnic.educom.edu. Try a "GET BITNET USERHELP" and a "HELP"
command.  That should give you a start.

There are also a lot of BITNET listservers, serving all kinds of mailing lists.
If you want to, I can mail you a list. Just let me know.

BTW, many LISTSERVER mailing lists are redistributed in Net News (all the bit.*
newsgroups).

Bye for now,
Peter.

I have to sell my ZyXEL due to financial pressures.  It's the best modem
I've ever owned, and I will sorely miss its unique features.  I've posted
this before, and I got a number of people saying "Gee, I can get an E model
for $foo, your price is too high."  This is NOT an E model.  It's the 1496
(sometimes called the 1496S model), with the 2-line LCD display and all that.
It currently sells for over $500 every place I've looked.  Steve Pershing
of the Questor project (where I bought this modem) has offered a free upgrade
of the ROMs to the current version to the person who buys this modem.

If you're thinking of buying a ZyXEL, please consider buying mine.
Thanks!

     This type of software is (IMHO) more suitable to a door than to
actual BBS software.  A BBS needs to be flexible enough to allow for
such specific uses, yet it needs to be standard enough to be useful
to many types of SYSOPs and users.  What you are asking for should be
an "add-on" in my opinion.

You have just essentially described the fundamenatals behind RoboBoard B
BS.
The menus are acombination between Line draw ala NAPLPS and Bitmaps a la
Microsoft Win. Current resolution is at High Res EGA on the users end. 1
6 colours now - going to VGA 256 at 640x480 when 2.0FX is released in t
second quarter of '93.  Similar concepts lie begind GETS and other
terminal software. Prodigy is along those lines.
RoboBoard has so far been the most successful at turning the concept ino
to a workable BBS package for the massess - though bugs have plagued it.

Hello E2KP,


Your previous message about Roboboard said

 E2> to get 1.06a or 1.06b as they were bnoth flo s as far as bug fixes go.
 E2> 1.07 - beta tested now - is supposedly going to be released next week.

 1.08 now .... Seems like ROBO is changing version as often as I change
 socks!

 E2> If it proves to be stable I will go out of my way to F'req it and post
 E2> it on several sites.

 1.08 is what ROBO should have been all along...
