Grape.ecs.clarkson.edu is a Zenith Z-248 running MS-DOS. We use a
modified version of KA9Q's TCP/IP NET that allows you to shell out to
COMMAND.COM while still processing packets. Grape is attached to the
Internet using a NI6510 Ethernet card donated by Racal Interlan for
that purpose. After shelling to DOS, we run an Opus BBS. The
particulars:
Almost all files are stored in .ZIP format. A .ZIP file contains a group
