Hi there,

I finally have my BBS back up after years and years of dormancy... I'm wondering how I go about getting my BBS connected to all of the these different networks, in this case specifically RetroNet.... who would I talk to about that? I know Araknet is by invite only so I'm ok running for a while and hopefully get connected to that at some point.

Thanks
Jeff

Contact Network Coordinator, Gary T. McCulloch on spitfiretn@gmail.com
That worked for me :-)

Wouldn't hold your breath, most networks are dead, some net owners
don't respond or don't care, some can't even keep their hubs up and
running. I've been up and running for over 6 years and never got an
Araknet invite or whatever so don't hold your breath.

Maybe stick to Fido and fsxnet where the traffic is.

Sorry to be Debbie Downer today.
