The following appeared in alt.bbs recently and received poor response [no offense jpw ;-)]. I hope a wider distribution will help. dean...k... Hi, My department would like to set up an in-house or on-campus bbs. I am told that the features that are being sought [currently ;-)] are: - a UNIX mail interface. - the ability to restrict access to certain groups to certain users or groups of users. - an on-board calendar/conferencing system. - easy [read straightforward] administration, no hacking. I am not familiar with the operation, administration or use of BBSs but the task of gathering info on them has come to me. I would be grateful for any assistance. I have info on a system called MMB or TEAMate. It costs $$$ but seems, from their promo material, to be robust if you have all the pieces. What other systems are out there and in use? I am interested in Public Domain, Shareware, Freeware or Payware. It should run on UNIX systems, SunOS specifically. It MUST have documentation. It would be very nice if our PC and dumb-terminal users could access it as well. Please send e-mail to: dkarres@hubcap.clemson.edu I will summarize any responses back to this group within a week or two. Yours, dean...k... -- || /X\/X\ dean...k... || // XX \\ || \\ XX // dkarres@hubcap.clemson.edu || \X/\X/
