[comp.sys.atari.st] Bulliten Board Systems.

Hello All,

	I recently purchased a copy of BBS version 2.1 for my 520STFM, in the
hope that I would be able to set up a simple board which would allow the
downloading of files and some sort of mailing system for the users only to
find that it contains some bugs.

	So I have now decided to write my own.  This will involve finding out
how kermit works, and any other file transfer protocal methods such as XMODEM,
etc. so that users can download files from my machine to their own.  I also
intend to use the Midi ports on the 520STFM for a local area network which
will enable me to connect a Mega ST 4 and another 520STFM for local users.

	Any info on kermit, midi, or other BBS packages which run on the ST
will be greatfully welcome.

				Regards,

					Jason.
