Message-ID: Date: 22 Oct 90 03:28:00 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 24 I have a few unused Rainbows, modems, etc. available and would like to put one or more to use as network nodes under FidoNet- haven't a clue as to how this might be done- even though (maybe years ago) I'm sure it was discussed right here... Does there exist any document(s) that might steer me the right way? A sort of 'hitchhiker's guide to the FidoNet' showing who to contact, etc and also, what software might be most effective on a Rainbow- I've heard in the past of Opus and am vaguely aware of some (non-paleontologic) things called fossils but need to come up to speed F A S T ! I would appreciate any help and suggestions... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Caution: Ostentatious SIG Ahead ! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ALCOA- We can't Wait for TOMORROW!
