I've logged onto Drew's BBS and what you can do with linux and non based 
BBS doors (programs) is very interesting I must say...  His BBS looks 
and runs like any other BBS I've seen... If I ever get a linux box I'll 
setup linux EleBBS myself aswell...  Also the people at Synchronet have 
a Windows dll or something that lets you run non BBS doors aswell which 
is an interesting concept aswell...

Just curious Drew what version of EleBBS are you running... Is it a 
release version or a CVS build?

Lata,
