Hello PETER,

 PC>   Somewhere I had a copy of Synchronet BBS and there is a switch
 PC> to allow the sysop to make the BBS look like Spitfire, Renegard or
 PC> Wildcat .....I think that is what you might have seen.

With Synchronet you can change the look of the BBS to just about anything you 
want. It comes with shells that look like wildcat, renegade, majorbbs and a 
few others. I suppose if one had the time and skill it could be made to look 
like just about any other BBS.. :)

You can change the logon to run an external dos BBS..

 PC> It doest not however allow with that program, or the one I have
 PC> for dialup ....only telnet.

It does have dial-up support now. Rob Swindell recently released sexpots.zip 
that gives a telnet BBS dial-up support.

 PC> Aaah   Penticton BC ...Home of the Vees!!!!  And the Warick Brothers.

Yep, they have a new arena now. Very nice.

 PC> Thanks for the help ....  and I am not really interested in 500
 PC> for a bbs system.....like Santronics ....I had better help from
 PC> Mustang ...Wildcat's orginal owners...

Me too, I only use open source myself. The BBS I use (MBSE BBS) and Synchronet 
are both open source, actively developed and supported and free to use.. :)

 Ttyl :-),

... A mind is a terrible thing to.. OH DOOM ][ is here!
