      ->-> You forget WinServer... which was pretty much built for the web.                I could not agree with you more. :)               ->       ->Lot of negative can be spoken about WinServer, the cost, the support for       ->the bbs dos version, etc. But as a WebServer it is fantastic and is       ->well supported and has been developed well over the years.                Again, I totally agree with you here.               ->       ->I use as my main web server and I still run the bbs even though that       ->portion has not been supported in years or any kind of update or       ->development.       ->                I run the BBS as well as all other services (I am on a development team that I       run a private mailing list for using the BBS and wcListServe, plus I also run       an unofficial MultiMail mailing list using it as well) and love it.                ->I bought the community version which was a two node system and have over       ->time purchased up to 12 nodes. That initial cost was around 200.00, I       ->was retired and had the money to invest. No regrets. I do regret       ->spending so much on the annual subscription to get updates, but then       ->again the web portion actively being developed.                This is basically what I did, then got up to 4 nodes, then purchased Sean       Highfield's 4 node WINServer license which brought my system up to 8 nodes,       where it stands today.               ->       ->However as of late, it has slowed down to a crawl. But the WinServer       ->web is strong also and very flexible in configuration.                As I continue to develop and support Wildcat! quite a bit these days, I find       my board to be quite active. I've gotten a lot of compliments on my BBS, both       on the ANSI side as well as the web interface.               ->       ->My .02, hopefully I am not to bashed in the head to much.       ->                Nah, now why would we do a thing like that? :)                Oh, and we should get you linked into WINSnet and DixieNet :)                                ...BUFFERS=20 FILES=15 2nd down, 4th quarter, 5 yards to go!        ---BapStats Module (bsDBASE v6.1 Build 1)         * Origin: http://finathon.org/neptunes-lair-bbs - Help Save Our O (1:116/18)    |
