Welcome to Maastad BBS, Rotterdam, Holland. With this textfile I want
to explain most of the mailer's functions YOU can get from it and all
about my BBS.
Maasstad has a multi-language setup! Maasstad supports both English and
Dutch menus. Maybe there will be some more when you call now!
The Mailer:
Intermail 2.2x, no requests between 2:00-6:00 local time. Requests
allowed from nodes in SigNet, FidoNet, VirNet or ThaNet. You can
request for a maximum of 1024kb per day, minimum speed is V22Bis (2400)
Magic names are: ABOUT and FILES.... But you know those names!
Maasstad has many nodenumbers, here they are:
2:285/501......FidoNet
27:1331/701....SigNet
9:310/301......VIRnet
70:3115/22.....ThaNet
13:315/106.....PNN
80:100/400.....Baseball net
Further Maasstad is a Host in SIGnet and a Hub in Virnet, the numbers
are:
27:1331/0......SigNet Net Coordinator Zuidholland
27:1331/1......SigNet Net Echomail Coordinator Zuidholland
27:1331/70.....SigNet Hub Rijnmond
9:310/300......VirNet Hub Zuidholland #3
And Maasstad has another paper function in SIGnet:
27:27/0........SigNet Zone Co-ordinator Z27 Europe
24:24/1........SigNet International Echomail Coordinator
24:24/0........SigNet International Coordinator
The BBS:
Remote Access 2.02+, online 24Hrs a dag. Speeds up to V32bis/V42bis.
Entering the BBS and you are a new user you will have to fill out a
survey. When you have answered the questions, hold on and watch!! All
my menu's are written in English and Dutch. So make your choice!
The Hardware:
Maasstad runs on a dedicated Novell server with approx 1GB of HD
capacity for files and about 200Mb for the mailer/BBS. The server is
an 386-dx-40 with 8Mb and cd-rom. Both lines are running from an own
computer, a 386 with plenty memory. Also on both lines there are 28k8
VFC modems (soon to be replaced with VFC/V34).
The maintenance computer is an 486-dx-25 Compaq Contura. This machine
tosses mail, updates the files, forwards the files and much more.
This way both BBS lines can run almost 24Hrs for calls!
The Betas:
Maasstad is a beta site for many programs. FastEcho, TCU, DoorMaster
TashCom, NU, AllFix, TrackM and Faxdoor are just a few examples. If you
want to be part of any of the beta sites, like me, drop a message!
The registrations:
Ever heard of FastEcho, the fastest mailprocessor? Sure you do!
Maasstad is the official support site for the Benelux (Belgium, Holland
and Luxembourg). Maasstad has the support for FastEcho and can make
keys for you too! Request FastEcho if you want a really fast and cheap
reliable mailprocessor!
The future:
Looking for a sponsor, so I can buy more lines for you. Maybe upgrading
to a 486 AT... Another harddisk, this one's almost full. Well, I can
call out more, but the length of this archieve would be too long!
For Now:
CU all on my BBS
