	I'm around here and there. mostly read usenet, helps when one
runs their own news server ;)

	Not currently. I was debating and testing running Maximus 3.02
under Dosemu with DR-DOS 7.03. Had bad karma with dosemu eating my
nodelists.
	If I could find a Telnetd for Dos that works with a packet
driver that emulates a modem (freeware please). I might just set up a
few Dos boxen to handle a few telnet/dialup nodes.
	Nothing Wrong with Synchronet but... I just don't like it very
much.
	Of course how would I tell my linux firewall to try another
dos bbs when the first is busy? You know like a hunt group, thus 3
386s/486s. one caller per machine. if Machine 3 is free send all
telnets to that machine. Of course most of the time the 4 nodes I
currently have are empty! Need users! Mostly get one call at a time.

Anyway, if you know me from the web then you know I ran a bbs right?
;) its in my usenet signature.

... 220V for a computer? Shocking!
