About Lan OS/2 w/DOS, On Sun Nov 07 1999

I never got an exception running KA9Q, it was just  not tough enough to be
consistent, some days I could connect every time others for get it, for me to
go 4 days with no mail was normal.  Then whammo a whole raft came in at once.

With fiftp all is well I get my mail more reliably now and trust it.

If your BBS stuff goes south 1/1/2000 why not consider AdeptXBBS, it is OS/2
native and works quite well for my purposes.
Features:
Built in Areafix, tic processor,  if you are good with a bit of programming
highly configurable, internet ready.  To get a copy go to
http://cereal.mv.com.

Note: I am a former MAX user my self.

EH> that route. (If I can hold off buying The Lady a Mac......)

Apple Talk should go into your lan with very little problems, have a friend
that is a whiz at this will ask him.

Hope this helps.  Keep us posted.

We are a fine board trying to make it better.
