What you are referring to is Red Ryder Host 2.0, the "other" commercial product
that The FreeSoft Company sells. It is NOT PD or shareware, and can't be
distributed via the net. It is available for $135 from:

The FreeSoft Company
150 Hickory Drive
Beaver Falls, PA 15010
(412) 846-2700

I run a private RRH 2.0 system for my business, and am intimately familiar
with it, in case you have questions. The other BBS software packages for the
Mac are WWIV 3.x (a straight port from the PC version) and Mansion. I must
admit that I don't know much about them, but there are others here on the net
that do...
