Thanks for the Help again. My system is up and running i have gained 10
users in the this week its been up. about half use it many times daily. and
soon will be using is for their pbbs too :-)
if i get xfbbs cryptic docs figured out... you have to be 1/3 vulcan and
1/3 C programmer to understand them bugers! but it is a "sweet" program.. i
love the X interface.. it looks good under
the Enlightenment Window Manager and the LCARS theme.. if you get a chance
check it out.
E that is... it is a tad bloated but for a window manager it kick fvwm95-2
in the rear :-)

but thats just my opinion.... Linux is as good as Free Sex... Wait..
better yet Free Software !...

Oh it was! :-)
