Sebrell > You might as well get it from the source! I'm the author of XBBS. You can call my system at 714-821-9671 and download it either through the bbs of request it via anon uucp. If you want to use uucp, the site name is alphacm and login as nuucp with no password. The file that you want to request is as follows: /user/bbsfiles/bbssoftware/ALLbbs.tar.Z. The present version is 7.45; however, version 7.5 is nearly complete. This new version will have SIG support. That is, you will be able to set up special interest groups and each group will have its own message base and file base along with the "general" groups. I hope that this helps, Sanford Zelkovitz -- uucp: ...!uunet!zardoz!alphacm!sandy ....!att!hermix!alphacm!sandy ...!trwrb!ucla-an!alphacm!sandy ....!lcc!alphacm!sandy phone: data --- 714-821-9671 voice --- 714-821-9670 Sanford Zelkovitz
