    Such a shame this message was sent between the zones, else we could guess
    how many there were reading this echo (because of the seen-bys).

    I'm considering setting UAE up agian (if I can get the kickstart stuff, etc), and setting spot and Qico up.

    It's damn easy.. :)

    Is mail manager easy to setup?

    you know that spot can not route netmail since its only a point program

    It's damn easy.. :)

    ta that says so much about debian :-)

    Is mail manager easy to setup?

    not without a mailmanger.key, since without its limted on arexx disabled

    spot olso without arexx when no key

    mailmanger should be easy olso and have all a node needs to toss route netmail

    but i sugest crashmail/crashtick if you want to be damm stable :-)

    source is on aminet for them, search aminet for april if you want source for a point program

    yes we want no limits :-)

    You call seen-by a limit?

    I'm considering setting UAE up agian (if I can get the kickstart stuff, etc), and setting spot and Qico up.

    you know that spot can not route netmail since its only a point program

    It can export it to your uplink and it's enough. :)

    I mean for a point program. It would be perfectly for my laptop with
    spot+qico.

    Is mail manager easy to setup?

    not without a mailmanger.key, since without its limted on arexx disabled

    Ah :( Do you know where to get a key? ;)

    spot olso without arexx when no key

    Ok.

    mailmanger should be easy olso and have all a node needs to toss route BP>netmail

    Yeah and they are free..

    PCMCIA = 1200.. Go for a 3com (there are drivers on aminet)! for some!

    Thought 3com allways uses their own chipset? But they are NE2k

    If so I'm supprised he got an offer from scala, because the quality

    Well there's hardly any traffic, so that would be easy. ;)

    But my amiga burned up years ago.

    I haven't turned on mine for over 6 years now. Maybe it still works, maybe it doesn't...

It seemed to be ahead of its time in some respects. So I joined this echo, just to see what sort of chit chat there might have been.

    It is a shame that the entire world is now wrapped into the single user mindset of the internet. If you really want to see what social networking
    is then they really should see ftn style networks.

    I'm actually ikn the process of setting up my old Amiga BBS running AmiExpress. I've almost got the telnet hack working so that people can
    telnet into it. I'm just wondering how many people will actually care.

    It is a shame that the entire world is now wrapped into the single user mindset of the internet. If you really want to see what social
    networking is then they really should see ftn style networks.

    I was just thinking last night about how Fidonet was inherently social, because

    so much of it was manually managed. To be added to the nodelist, you had to ask someone. To setup a link with another sysop, you had to ask. And that's not to mention that the entire point of Fidonet was to talk to people in the first place. The internet requires very little communication with other users to get anything out of it, so you find a lot more people who never had to develop any social skills. That's not to say that there's not still plenty of great people there too though, probably more overall than Fidonet ever had since it's so much larger. The internet is also a great resource and collection of technology in general. But I'm quite sure the ratio of crappy people vs good ones skewed dramatically since the BBS days.

    Anyhow, the thought crossed my mind because I got to thinking on how one might make Fidonet more appealing to more people, by automating aspects such as getting a node number and things like that (assuming it's not already fairly automated, I have no idea these days). And while it could be done easily, as I've automated websites before myself to remove any need for constant admin interaction for frequently used aspects, you lose that personal connection with

    the users and it just becomes more of a faceless service, like so many other things on the net as far as the user is concerned. For some things that's fine, for others it's not. And in terms of Fidonet, gaining users vs losing the personal touch is a hard trade-off to decide on. Luckily it's not up to me

    to decide!


    I'm actually ikn the process of setting up my old Amiga BBS running AmiExpress. I've almost got the telnet hack working so that people can telnet into it. I'm just wondering how many people will actually care.

    I'm betting not too many, unfortunately. You'll probably get a few who use it out of novelty though. And for those people alone, it might be worth it, because they'll get some nostalgia out of it.

    I wrote some software to solely run door games via telnet, most of the Seth Able ones, and got some interest from a handful of friends for a few weeks. Some lost interest faster than others. Occasionally someone will ask me to start that machine up, but I usually leave it off these days. But just the fact that some of these people were folks who never got to play these games back in the day makes it worthwhile in my opinion.

    Glad I could help. :) While I'm here, maybe this will generate a bit
    of conversation for the group --

    I used to run an Amiga BBS using TransAmiga. I've recently pulled the
    machine and HDs out of storage, and miraculously, everything actually
    works.

    I've successfully transferred and run it from an emulator under Windows
    (no success on OSX, though, is UAE the best there is?), but thought it
    might be interesting to use the real hardware to bring it online via
    telnet.

    Unfortunately, I've got no idea where to begin. I've seen at least
    one AmiExpress system running on authentic hardware but didn't see much
    info on how it was done. Any pointers would be appreciated!

    I'm actually just on net 229 because Nick was awesome enough to respond to my initial newsgroup post on how I might get involved with Fidonet again these days. When I first started talking to him, I thought I wanted to get a node number more for my area (region 18, probably net 116), but he went ahead and set me up with one in his net since it was easiest and quickest at the time, and said I could always change it later. As I kept using it though, I realized

    it just doesn't matter these days where you originate from now thanks to the internet, and figure I'll stick with this one. I think he has some other folks

    not from that area under his wing, as well.

    Some of them old computers seem to be a lot tougher than some of the ones we use today.

    (no success on OSX, though, is UAE the best there is?), but thought it
    might be interesting to use the real hardware to bring it online via

    UAE is what I've used on Windows for games, and it seemed to work fine, but I haven't used it enough to see of any downsides it might have.

    one AmiExpress system running on authentic hardware but didn't see much

    Good news is, I'm pretty sure almost all the Amigas had RS-232 serial ports, so

    you should be able to use a common null modem cable to hook it to your main computer. If you don't have a serial port, you can buy a usb to serial adapter

    pretty cheap these days. From there, you'd need to find some software, presumably for OSX in your case, to listen on a TCP connection on your main computer, and pass communication through your serial port. Since OSX is based on Unix, this might end up being fairly simple to do already without even downloading anything, since I know Linux can do it, but I have no idea off the top of my head the exact process without doing some research.

    I'm workng on getting an AmiExpress system running on a 1200 and it's
    almost done, i'm just waiting on a pcmcia network card that will work with
    it in order to run telnetd.device so people can telnet it. I built the
    system in UAE and transfered it over to the 1200 once I was done. It was
    easy to pull it off on my laptop then shoot it over to the orginal
    hardware. I'm running UAE on my Mac without a problem using E-UAE for the
    Mac and Hi-Toro as a GUI for E-UAE. If you google it you'll find it.

    The English Amgia Board located at http://eab.abime.net was a great
    resource of info for setting everything up.

    If you need any help drop me a netmail and i'd be more than glad to help
    out.

    on a TCP connection on your main computer, and pass communication
    through your serial port. Since OSX is based on Unix, this might end
    up being fairly simple to do already without even downloading anything, since I know Linux can do it, but I have no idea off the top of my head

    Looks like there are a few options to do this on Windows and Linux. I've already got a Linux webserver machine running 24/7, so this sounds like a perfect job for it. Thanks for the tip!

    I'm workng on getting an AmiExpress system running on a 1200 and it's almost done, i'm just waiting on a pcmcia network card that will work
    with it in order to run telnetd.device so people can telnet it. I
    built the system in UAE and transfered it over to the 1200 once I was done. It was easy to pull it off on my laptop then shoot it over to
    the orginal hardware. I'm running UAE on my Mac without a problem
    using E-UAE for the Mac and Hi-Toro as a GUI for E-UAE. If you google
    it you'll find it.

    Sounds like I just have some configuration glitches with my UAE install,
    or perhaps it doesn't like OSX Leopard.

    I've also got Hi-Toro and it looks like it'll make config files much
    easier. The only thing I have to compare it to is Amiga Forever on the PC (which makes things embarassingly easy).

    Speaking of AmiX, what's the current license status of it? I always wanted
    to play with it during my TransAmiga days but never had the cash. If it's 'abandonware' maybe I'll take a look!


    If you need any help drop me a netmail and i'd be more than glad to
    help out.

    I just may do that; thanks very much!

    The best thing to do is copy the uae config file from Amiga Forever
    over to the Mac and just chage the paths to reflect the location of the roms and drives in OSX. Actually I coppied all the roms and hard drive files over to Leopard and just tweaked the paths as I mentioned above.

    Sounds great, I'll give it a shot. I didn't realize that Amiga Forever used UAE underneath.


    4.12 seems to be the last version I could find and I could not find
    anyone anywhere that claimed any rights to it. The number that was on
    the registration card is diconnected. I'm assuming it is abandonware

    Are you still able to find utilities/doors for it? I guess I should take
    a poke through Aminet to see what's around. TransAmiga pickings are scarce, but they weren't all that plentiful even when the system was being
    maintained.

    I also came across my shrink-wrapped copy of Sterling BBS, but I remember
    it being highly buggy and pretty much unusable. I can't find any info on Sterling now, but vaguely remember it was a company from the UK.

    Yes it works quite stable. Many Amiga systems have used the same hack to
    move their systems to the telnet world for years now.

    PS: it does not help to put the 4G partion as the last partion since ums have its own lowlevel io filesystem, and this is the problem when i have 60G 2.5" a1200 :-)

    Having never owned any actual Amiga hardware, I must admit I had no idea tha any Amiga had a pcmcia slot until I saw it mentioned here. I'd have never guessed, since it seems an odd thing for a desktop machine to have. But it certainly opens up the possibility for expansion, even today, despite only being the 16-bit style port.

    It was only the A1200 which was a compact desktop system (Think commodore
    64).

    Just be careful of the cable wiring. The Amiga was

    Amigas that were destroyed when they were plugged into the wrong cable. Always

    make sure your Amiga is switched off before you plug or unplug cables or devices into the serial or parallel port.

    Amiga and my PC which can do binkp. Either that or I work really hard on getting binkd working on an Amiga, lol

    have seen Amigas that were destroyed when they were plugged into the
    wrong cable. Always make sure your Amiga is switched off before you plug
    or unplug cables or devices into the serial or parallel port.

    Wow that's both good advice for Amiga folks as well as just interesting to know

    in general. I just went to check out Amiga pinouts to see just what all the serial port could handle, and apparently different models had varying capabilities, everything from audio in, audio out, the various power voltages you mention, interrupts, and even the system clock. That's actually pretty awesome from a tinkerer's perspective. Might have been a headache for people to use standard cables with, though, until they made sure it was ignoring those

    other pins instead of passing them through.

    Handy both for homebrew electronics people and for
    peripheral manufacturers. I never did figure out what the audio in was for though, afaik Paula didn't have an ADC.

    I made myself a little adaptor: 25 pin M to 25 pin F
    with only the "safe" pins wired through.

    If I had to guess, I'd bet it was just a passthrough/amplifier to the system's main audio output. Might be useful for something like a cd audio.

    Both of those are nice machines. I miss my A1200.

    I'm actually really enjoying the 1200. It's the perfect machine for a
    bbs. As for my 3000, that still lives on my desk as a games machine.
    Nothing beats some of them old games that required some serious skill.

    a1200, a600 both have pcmcia slot, but a600 only have 1M chip mem, so not that usefull in the end, a shame since it works

    If you need help just let me know. I also have binkd running on my Amiga as well without a problem, so pulling mail in works too.

    Do you maybe want to revive Zone 40 of AmigaNet? ;-)

    I still have a working Amiga I'm game for it, but I'm not programming much anymore and to be honest I'm not so certain I can remember much about how to work the darn thing.

    I'm game to revive it, just sad that Asha has passed away before I found out by googling her.

    But if you want to join AmigaNet, contact 1:227:51 Kris Jones, he's running the

    In the case of Frank Linharus, I very much doubt it. I had a direct AmigaNet link with him. And me and his FidoNet host tried to contact him through all known channels, when his system started misbehaving... There was never a response. So we stopped the connections and removed him from the respective nodelists.

    I blame my reader, the threading made me read a lot of posts
    and I went back to the original, since the later threads were diverging
    into other topics, and didn't check the date.
