>[paraphrased] Is there a multi-user bbs that runs on a ][gs
As far as I know the closest thing to any multi-user bbs that runs on a single
][gs is Diversi-Dial(TM) By Bill Basham at Diversified Software research,
Inc.
I am the president of a corporation that runs a ddial (accessable free between
1am-8pm) at 512/829-1951. (Thats in San Antonio, TX) It is not a BBS per se,
but is more of a CB Simulator that allows up to 7 users online at once. About
all you can do is chat or send/receive short email. Bill Basham can be
reached in Detroit between 3p-5p at 313/553-9460.
There are several other bbs packages that will run on several ][ series
computers on a Local area Network. As I understand it GBBS pro is
alpha-testing a multi-user version, Rainbow Telecommunications (Austin, TX)
has a modified version of proline, and other packages can be modified to go
multi user, BUT, with the exception of Diversi-Dial, they all rerquire a
SEPERATE apple for each line, and some may require a dedicated apple to act as
a disk server for a common hard disk.
