Would somebody mind giving me some info, insight, or comments on their experiences in setting up a communications server. By communications server, I mean a server that accepts multiple incoming calls and provides some type of service to the calling client - yea, like a BBS, only a little more automated. The info I would appreciate includes what kind of hardware and operating system to use. Currently, I have plans for either a DOS or OS/2 server. DOS is obviously limited because of the hassels of supporting more than 2 ports. OS/2 is obviously the best alternative, but will cost more. I would also appreciate info on the modem configurations. Should I use a multiport board ? Which one ? Any related info would be appreciated. Thanks...Regards |(8> --- Robert
