Title: Launched - Commodore 8 bit news server
Post by: Blacklord on August 27, 2006, 05:57 PM
As some of you may be aware, I've run a BBS for the last (nearly) 19 years. Originally it started as an Amiga & Commodore 8 bit board, but later added in DOS, OS/2 & Windows.

Currently I'm in the throws of re-developing the BBS. When I relaunch it, it will be purely a Commodore 8 bit BBS catering for all models from CBM.

It'll have the usual suspects - files, doors & message board.

I'm using EleBBS which has the ability to post it's message areas via NNTP - so, before the board goes live, I've put up the message areas in this format already (there isn't a great deal there yet!). Once the BBS is live again I'll continue to mirror to Ele's news server.

Access does not require authentication - simply point your news reader to landover.no-ip.com

I'd appreciate if people could test the functionality (indeed, try & break it!).

regs,

Lance

Works from here, when's the BBS being launched (or re-launched?)

Fairly soon - all menus are re-written (nice, simple & fairly basic). Just adding in the file areas now. And arguing with some old (read: ancient) door games trying to get 'em to function.
