I'm looking for information on ANY bulletin board programs written for OS/2. (A perfect one would be Presentation Manager-based and either worked with a OS/2 UUCP or had a UUCP module in it to allow the BBS users to see Usenet news feeds...) - Darius ========================================================================= BITNET: U39648@UICVM | "I'd rather laugh with the sinners Internet: u39648@uicvm.uic.edu | than cry with the saints, ====================================| the sinners are much more fun, "Don't set fire to strangers." | and only the good die young." - Mr. Zarniwoop | - Billy Joel

Multi-Net : sells a BBS as well as PMCOMM : can be reached at (503) 883-8197 Magnum : OS/2 BBS and comm pkgs : BBS # is (805) 582-9306 Simplex : OS/2 BBS - pretty good, source available : author's name is Chris Laforet : Programmer's Oasis BBS (919) 226-6984 and 7136 : FidoNet Mail 1:151/401 or 1:151/402 : Compuserve ID: 76120,110 : Genie Mail ID: XTX74591 : BIX Email ID: laforet Sorry, the Multi-Net number above is a BBS... There's also a shareware/freeware(?) BBS floating around which originates somewhere in Europe. I scooped it from somewhere in a file called OS2BBS.ZIP. It's fairly simplistic but definitely works. Hope this helps. There are probably other systems out there but these are the ones I could come up with.

There's been a couple of message through here which contain FTP sites for OS/2 software. Maybe you can dig those messages up or someone would be kind enough to repost...
