- -> Hi John! I have been trying to fax the TCA rate card to you at 747-16
- -> for the past two days but the line just rings and rings. Is this the
- -> correct number and is the fax machine on standby on that line?
- ->
- -> Thanks, Rob, VE3YE (voice phone 837-4477)
-
- The numbed is correct Rob. My FAX is a modem connected to the computer
- and sometimes does not work properly. I tested it last night and it
- seems to be working again. The modem is set to pickup after four rings.
- If it does not work the next time you try to send the rate card, please
- use my office fax number, 990-8772.

-
- If you are interested in using the N0ARY packet/internet gateway; or if
- you simply want to access his bbs remotely via internet, here are the proper
- addresses:
-
- gateway_info@arasmith.com
- will automatically send you gateway instructions. These are about
- 10Kb and tell you how to operate the gateway from both directions.
-
- gateway_request@arasmith.com
- This is the address to send in a registration request. You must
- include fullname, call, city/state, zip and a phone number. It
- normally takes me a few hours to get you registered, it is a manual
- verification process. You will be notified when the registration
- is complete.
-
- bob@arasmith.com
- This is Bob╘s (N0ARY) address, use it when you have problems.
-
- There is a mirror image of my setup located in Fremont CA, just across the
- bay from Sunnyvale, CA. The sysop there is Pat. His addresses are:
-
- gateway_info@lbc.com
- gateway_request@lbc.com
- pat@lbc.com
-
- N0ARY also has bbss coming up in other areas of the US. I don't know whether
- or not they will allow unlimited access of their gateways.
-
- In addition, there has been recent requests for a bbs that runs on a Sun.
- The N0ARY bbs does run on Suns. It was developed on a 3/80 but now
- resides on his network of sparcs. Since the bbs makes heavy use of network
- sockets it doesn't have to reside on a single machine although most
- people run it that way. The code has also been ported to HP workstations
- and 386/486s running linux. The HP and linux ports where done by Bob
- Proulx, KF0UW, in Colorado.
- For info on these ports try contacting him directly at
- rwp@hprwp.fc.hp.com
-
- N0ARY just went through a major upgrade in his code and will not have it
- available for ftp until it has been throughly tested. This activity is in
- progress. He will try to make an announcement when it is available. To get
- more information about the bbs and how it functions in a unix environment
- ftp the file arasmith.com:/pub/n0ary.bbs/Architecture.ps.Z. When the bbs
- becomes available it will be ftp'able from that same location.
-
- Any other questions, just yell.

- Uh-oh. Was this a discussion about commercial useage? If so, I'm
