[comp.sys.amiga] Having trouble with Tag-bbs

jonasf@kuling.UUCP (Mad Flax) (01/14/88)

[One stitch is not all that glimmers..]

I found that I have a lot of diskspace on my A2000.. Would be fun to
use that, so I tried to get Tag-BBS up and running. Can't figure out
what is wrong. Generate barfs and Gomf tells me that there is an odd
adress in there somewhere.. Anyone else seen this problem? I figure my 
Generate might be broken, so if there is anyone woth a *working* Tag-bbs
I would greatly appreciate a copy of generate.
(compress'd & uudecoded will be fine)--

I once tried to get that darn program to work, I never had much success,
there was just a posting of an offer of BBS software on the net here:

I am going to try to get my hands on it and let the net know how well it
goes...

Mad Flax;

The cure for your problem's a simple one.  Generate doesn't work correctly
without at LEAST a 10K stack.  This was not included in the documentation
for some unknown reason.  If you want to contact the author of TAG-BBS,
he's on the net as  
mhatter@pnet02.CTS.COM.
