It had        MP> its own proprietary network mailer/tosser which was only compatable        MP> with networks built on its topology. One thing it had going for it        MP> was that all messages entered into an echo were routed to the        MP> sponsor's/moderator's system first. Made it much easier to moderate        MP> echos! :)               MP> My XT had an internal 2400 baud modem. For the longest time, I could        MP> only get it to work at 1200 on outgoing calls. Finally figured out        MP> how to set it up properly to get full use out of it.               MP> I also tried once to put an upgraded 8-bit serial card in it so I        MP> could use a 16550 UART and a faster modem. Did not work as well as I        MP> expected. That eventually lead me to my third PC, an 80386DX-40. I        MP> loved that machine!               MP> I still have it somewhere, too, but I think the power supply on it        MP> stopped working.              and what was the setup for the 386? same bbs software?              Regards,       --       dp              -=>> telnet://bbs.roonsbbs.hu:1212 <<=-              ... 9:55pm up 6 days, 6:55:22, load: 76 processes, 278 threads.       --- GoldED/2 1.1.4.7+EMX        * Origin: Roon's BBS - Budapest, HUNGARY +36-1-4454412 (2:371/52)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 18/200 80/1 90/1 92/1 103/705 105/81 106/201 120/340       SEEN-BY: 123/131 129/305 330 331 153/7715 154/10 218/700 221/1 6 226/30       SEEN-BY: 227/114 229/110 206 317 400 424 426 428 452 664 700 240/1120       SEEN-BY: 240/1634 1895 5832 8001 8002 8005 266/512 280/464 5003 282/1038       SEEN-BY: 292/854 301/1 113 313/41 317/3 320/219 322/757 335/364 341/66       SEEN-BY: 342/200 371/0 52 382/147 396/45 460/58 633/280 712/848 2452/250       SEEN-BY: 3634/12 5020/1042 5058/104       PATH: 371/52 0 240/1120 301/1 229/426           |
