5296.0. "BBS software ??" by GIDDAY::MORAN () Sat Dec 21 1991 06:24

    
    We just had a sale of surplus stock here at work and I managed to pick
    up a microVAX 2000 for a VERY cheap price.
    
    Now that's it at home I decided that it would make a great bullitien
    board system.
    
    I could you DEC's products like vaxnotes/vms mail ... and tie them all
    together but I'd thought I check first and see if anyone has heard of
    any BBS software for VMS.
    
    Of course this would be an AMIGA ONLY BBS :-)

    Yes, There is a BBS software for VMS. Available on DECUS tapes and via
    FTP there is a package called BULLETIN that may do what you want. You
    may even find it on the Enet if you look around - I don't know where
    though.

5296.2DECUS on EASYNET?GIDDAY::MORANWed Dec 25 1991 18:2913
    
    Thanks for the pointer John. Does anyone know if these tapes are on
    EASYNET ?  I asked our DECUS person and he says that we don't have
    access to the decus stuff.
    
    Thanks  Shaun.
    
    P.S. I know this is the wrong conference to post these questions but I
    throw myself on the mercy of the court. eg. I get a more intelligent
    response from wuestions on the amiga conference that any other. Also
    the BBS is going to further the amiga PD software base thereby
    futhering the amiga :-)
