Well at first, I was installing it in Windows, and after configuring it all
up it wouldn't send or receive network echos. Kept giving me a unzip error,
NuSkooler made mention that it might be a Windows issue to try Linux.. Trust
me I am no Linux pro! I get the bug to do away with Windows everyt once in a
while and install Linux in a VM play with it for 10 minutes say I am crazy
and go back to windows! I installed Ubuntu, followed his instructions for a
manual install and was up and running but still having network issues. I put
my config.hjson on wastebin or pastebin whatever it is called and he asked me
what I was using to edit it? Notepad++ of course! He then asked if I was
using the HJSON plug in? Huh??? LOL I started over from scratch, downloaded
Visual Studio and edited it with that in Linux and bam! Works like a charm,
having some issues where some echos don't seem to hook up but I will figure
it out..

As for the software, I'm liking it! I am going to dumb down the graphics this
week because I suck at graphics and put it online for all to make fun of my
new BBS probably next week. It's up now but I haven't advertised it. I like
being in on the ground floor of something. Reminds me of my days when I beta
tested for Symantec, when I think it was called Norton One first came out,
the first beta was horrible!! I threw some pointers to the head of that beta
and he relayed it to the writers and the 2nd beta was a lot better.. So I
don't mind things that don't work or things that don't exist (killing
messages in the message bases) but it's cool. I am not installing doors, I
hooked up to the big ones and added my own (I have a door server with about
50 doors so far) and I am not doing the File Base, so I set the File option
to go straight to my File Server which has about 13 CD's and a ton of
Commodore/Amiga stuff... Anyways, this message is dragging on..
