SD> Hi, everyone. SD> I'm wondering whether I should use the DOS or Win32 version of BT with SD> SPITFIRE since SF is DOS-based. The board will eventually be running SD> under W2K. I don't think it matters. BinkleyTerm/DOS has good timeslicing under Windows, so there's virtually no CPU load. I highly recommend running your BBS in VMware. I run my BBS on Windows NT 4.0 in VMware on WindowsXP. I got full networking for my BBS eg. telnet, and can add virtual IDE/SCSI disks, CDROMs and FDDs to my BBS etc and benefit from the speed of a QuadCore host hardware; which means nighly BBS maintenance in 30 secs and tossing 3000 messages in 5 seconds. You can run your BBS in MS-DOS 6.22 (or whatever) in VMware on Linux or Windows etc. --- Maximus 3.01* Origin: Your Public Access Network (3:712/104) SEEN-BY: 633/260 267 640/954 712/0 104 313 848 @PATH: 712/104 848 633/267 |
