I actually use proboard, but I could switch to SBBS if need be. I used it before proboard years ago. Unless your going to tell me proboard has a telnet version too? :) It would save me re-doing all my menus and loosing the message base. assuming we are still using the hudson message base? I want to put on a historic board. a snapshot of my old bbs from the mid 90's when it went down. messages files and all. do you know the urls? i tried sbbs.com and superbbs.com and got nowhere. thank for you rhelp thus far. it's been great. -- EnjoyDialup - You know you want to... mail=valid required when replying http://www.aussieonline.net/~enjoydialup http://www.aussieonline.net/~enjoydialup/truth about HyperOz & Nigel Howe .
