I'm not sure what you mean... could you give me more information? What is
OS2YOU and PM2YOU? Are they replacement WPS's?

True...current releases of Adept only run on HPFS due to the program structure
and the fact that it uses long filenames and directory names.

> How is it other than that?

Well...I AM a little biased. I am very satisfied with the product and I was not
at all happy with the lack of Fido support in VBBS. Sure they have the DOS
version of VFido running pretty good but Neil Marshall got into a spat with
Roland and the OS/2 version ceased being upgraded and the latest version was
very, very slow and buggy.

I think you will like OS/2. To get the doors running you need to get a copy of
Ray Gwinn's SIO comm drivers. Much better comm drivers than the native ones
that come with OS/2. I run a two line system here with a 486SLC/66 and 16Mb
RAM with about 1 gig of HD space and 20-30 online games. Most of the games
run fine except a couple of them are real cycle pigs and slow the system down
a little bit. Normal usage is great though.

Subject: Shutting down...

I'm posting this on a few different OS/2 subs I subscribe to, so my
apologies for making anyone read this more than once.

I'm running a two node VBBS-DOS based system, and am looking for the
ability to shut down and restart one node from the other from DOS. For
example, if my first node locks up for some reason and I call in from
remote (on the second node), I'd like to be able to shut down node 1 and
then re-start it.

I'm also interested in this to set up a transporter to allow someone
online to call out using the other modem; to do so I'd need to first
shut the other node down, and then restart it when the outgoing call
completed.

Does OS/2 have any provisions for accomplishing this? If so, can they
be executed from a DOS session? I'm using OS/2 Warp.

HELP!

Hello, I dont even know if there is anyone out there reading this base I
hope so! Anyways I need help with IBM's Internet Connection Package that is
sent with OS/2 3.0. I cant get it to dial my PPP host. It just wont dial, it
dials if set to SLIP mode but not PPP I want/need PPP. It is all configured
correctly as far as I know. Any ideas anyone?

Quoted the wrong guy.. But...

I purchased the VBBS 0S/2 as an upgrade. I have run VBBS Dos for close to 2
years now. I have Warp cooking on my personal computer and plan on going
OS/2 with the BBS soon. Not sure if VBBS is what I will stay with, but I set
my hard drive as a FAT rather than a HPFS style, I read that AdeptXBBS won't
run on a FAT drive?

How is it other than that?

I am new at OS/2 so as of now on my "Test OS/2 BBS" I have no door working.
If I ever get it tweeked I might move over full time. Only problem I see is
I run a 2 line call-in and 2 local nodes on a network (Lantastic), so time
will tell.

I paid less for the two node version with REXX and Internet support
than I did for the DOS and OS/2 versions of VBBS. Right now, if you
want the basic package, with REXX or Internet, it is only $99. If you
want both then the price is $159. Yeah...I know...Max is cheaper...free
is always cheaper, neh?

The purpose of this sub is to provide "grass-roots" support for OS/2
via an informal group known as Team OS/2...

What do we talk about? Well...anything and everything that has to do
with OS/2 including how it works and so forth.
