(So if > you're in say GMT - 10 it'll be down all day). Congratulations! You have chosen the BEST BBS SOFTWARE you will find anywhere. Suggestions....yes...once you have the system built and up and running just the way you like, take your hard drive and clone it.(Norton Ghost works well) Then take the back up hard drive and put it in a safe place. This is experience talking. Though in the day I had rebuilding the BBS from scratch down, seems my old hard drives would crash on a yearly basis, Guess the running 24/7 365 was tough on those old Western Digital Drives. :) 73 Mark .
