BFE v3.00.1p, the flexible BBS front end system from Southeastern DataLINK,
is now available!

BFE is a BBS front-end system that was designed to provide sysops with a
method of running more than one BBS from the same line.  In addition, it has
a wealth of other options available to put in on the front-end of your BBS,
such as allowing file transfers, ANSI/ASCII/AVATAR/RIP file viewing, shelling
to DOS from remote, running external programs and batch files, and much more!
Use BFE's internal UNIX gateway to "gate" your users from your DOS-based BBS
to your UNIX Internet/UUCP systems using interactive access menus!

BFE was designed to be called from a front-end mailer, such as Frontdoor or
Binkleyterm, although the WFC (Wait-for-caller) module is now available in a
separate archive.  Instead of spawning directly to the BBS system, it
presents a menu to the user, which details his immediate options.  These
options can range from several different BBS systems, remote jobs, literally
anything you can think of!  The BFE system can also be configured to be
called straight from your BBS software itself, in essence, running as a
normal door, using one of several popular BBS dropfile formats.

In today's high-tech world, connectivity has become a major issue. Getting
from point A to point B sounds incredibly simple at times, but is often an
entirely different situation, especially when portability and multiple  
platforms come into play.

For example, let's take the BBS community.  For years now, the the vast 
majority of the world's amateur online BBS systems have been DOS-based 
Bulletin Board packages.  Packages such as Scott Dudley's Maximus CBCS and
Andrew Milner's RemoteAccess BBS have gained large sysop followings, and
have each spawned no less than a dozen clones.  The last estimate was around
30,000 public access BBS systems in the United States alone.  Not bad when
you think that most of this started from a man named Ward Christensen's 
garage back on a snowy night in February, 1978, in Chicago.

Now imagine a real-time network which connects millions of users and systems
scattered across the globe.  Internet.  The final word in cyberspace 
computing.  With the advent of the "NII" (information superhighway), the 
Internet will grow by leaps and bounds.

Sound good so far?  Well, the fact of the matter is, that most of the systems 
belonging to the Internet are UNIX based systems, not DOS based.  So, how do 
we provide access to those UNIX systems via our DOS-based BBS packages?  With 
NIX/Gate, of course!

NIX/Gate is a online BBS application ("door") which provides a direct serial
connection to a UNIX-based system such as SCO/UNIX, Xenix, AIX, Linux, 
Coherent, etc., from a DOS-based BBS system.  Keep the flexibility and 
functionality of your existing DOS-based BBS intact, and simply use NIX/Gate
to shove those advanced users over to the UNIX side of things!  DOS is pretty,
UNIX is powerful - now, you can have both!

NIX/Gate performs "raw" data interpretation, which essentially means that
your users can use literally any terminal emulation your UNIX system
supports (i.e. vt100, vt220, wyse, IBM/3151, etc).

Through inexpensive SLIP connections with true Internet hosts, it is now
possible to provide "live" Internet access to your users!  Imagine being
able to provide "telnet" and "ftp" access to your DOS-based BBS subscribers!
And even if you do not run a SLIP connection directly to the Internet, it
provides a nifty way of providing affordable Usenet newsgroups and Internet
E-Mail to your users.  Read onward!

NIX/Gate's features include:

        * Connect directly with speeds up to 38,400 bps.        
        * Multinode/Multiuser Compatible!
        * DESQview and MS-Windows aware!
        * Support for a variety of BBS dropfiles (including the new RA 2.0!)
        * Support for virtually any text-based terminal emulation!
        * Much more!
