The Major BBS Forums (Archive)

Do you think it might be a good idea to put a For Sale section on the Forum? I'v got a few BBS related things I'd like to sell and maybe some of the other guys might as well.

What are you selling hardware/software or other?

I've got a couple Boca Research BB-2016's 16 Port Serial Boards I'm possibly looking to part with, but I'm not looking to give them away if you know what I mean. They are complete, functional and come with 16 RJ45 to DB9 Short Pigtails to hook regular Modem Cables upto or Crossover Cables if you want.

I don't need one I have a 16 port digi board. I only run telnet inbound so no sale here but someone may take you up on it. Try posting in the worldlink sysop message forum.

anyone got a dual CPU system? not interested in perephials but will settle for whatever, originally i was looking at a dual XEON 2.40 socket 478 board but my supplier doesnt have anymore.

im working on a worldgroup .net port and want to test a dual cpu HT setup.
also have an ultima online server i would like to put on a quad core.
i usually deal on ebay but goddamn they are getting high these days.
bought 2 LG SHINE cell phones one for $240 one for $180 hell i remember when razors first came out you could grab one on ebay for like 100-150
ebay gets higher and higher every year, i considered starting a service like that but hell from what i hear ebay inc is sbuying people out before they even get there's off the ground.

but back to the point also any socket 478 motherboards i am interested in.
all my bbs servers run socket 478 pentium 4 and i had a MB just go, i would like one with 4 DIMM slots instead of 2.

just let me know.

Worldgroup.Net?? Hey did you ever get DotNetNuke setup and running?

ueah i found it to be quite overbloated, not too bad for a free o/s web package but in my opinion the database stuff needs to be looked at.
you still got it up and running?

Yeah, I just formatted all my Server drives and re-loaded everything from scratch. I'm setting up Windows 2003 w/IIS6, SQL Express 2005, DNN 4.8.4 and WG 3.2 again and I'm going to setup menus so the DNN user can Telnet, ActiveHTML, or WG Client to the BBS. I wish there was a way for the BBS to Authenticate against the DNN Installation so the user didn't have to Login twice. I've also located some nice DNN Modules that let you do just about everthing that WG does except the Games. Very nice File Libraries, Teleconference, E-Mail, and Forums.

pass the login in the http link.

For the ActiveHTML? Do you have any Examples you could share? How would I pass it to a Java Telnet Applet? Anything you could enlighten me with I'd appreciate it, I've got some web skills, but I'm no expert by any means.

ActiveHTML passes to java too, look at the remote sysop menu active-html, thats all java.

domain/remote

basically what ya wanna do is when you setup the links you will have to set it up to pass userid/pw to the active-h page, keep in mind they will need an account already they way i do that is have a program run and access the accounting database directly and

create a user prior to loading the active-h page.

i did a custom app for a sysop that uses WG only to run a majormud server, his site runs off of some php program.

all i did was have each user account created from his site login to execute a program to create an account on their majormud server with user-id being their email address used to signup to the portal site and password being the dateof birth they used to signup, then created the account with the name,pw,d.o.b

every web user created also created a WG account, then the link play majormud opened a java telnet session to WG.

it would require alot of trial and error if you wanted to do the same with .NET nuke.

the new tele-arena i created does the same thing the web-telecon does which allows a web session to emulate the C/S and A/A module and lerts users play through the web anyhow.

let me know how it comes.
