Winfossil i had heard of but not tried, and thought that it was merely
another front end fossil driver, nothing indicated to me that it was a telnet
server, but I will check it out. Netmodem I have heard a lot about, and
telnet server WAS mentioned often regarding it, and COM/IP I have seen
mentioned but with problems associated. Thats the big 3, not quite 'many' eh
. Just kidding Matt. I dunno, Although I am capable with win95 and NT, and
still prefer OS/2 above either ot them, I am leaning more and more towards
Linux for my next system. It just seem like the best for internet handling
and BBS as an all in one box. Plus, it multitasks with the best of them.
Adios for now,
