I don't know much about wildcat! for dos, but I know modern versions of Wildcat! are internet capible. But they are not dos based. If you insist on using Wildcat! dos then you will need dosemu with the vmodem patch. I personally recomend bbbs for linux if you want to do a bbs under linux. It works great and has it's own daemon for incoming connections (won't do doors that way, but doesn't need any either. Does all the mail internally).
Anything beyond this note however is getting beyond the scope of this letter. If you want to, email me privately and we can talk. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Burke, Thomas G." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, January 02, 2002 7:18 AM Subject: Making my serial BBS work over the internet > Hey gang, > > I used to run a BBS (Speedy's Dilemma, if you care)...
