Oh yeah!  It works and has for quite some time.  Long before Windows was
around.  No browsers either until Lynx came on the scene but everyone hated
it.  The text was all off and hard to read.  Them were the days.  :-)

I know BBBS can do kermit.  I am not sure about any other Linux BBS
packages.  If you're asking what other protocal I'd like to see a Linux
Maximus capable of it would have to be ftp.  That way browsers or ftp
clients that any OS already has could be employed.  I know some of the
older DOS guys wouldn't mind kermit.  I'm going to check the protocals and
see what's already there.  Kermit won't hurt my feelings any.

Life is good,
Maurice
