- HOW TO BECOME PART OF THIS LIST:
- --------------------------------
-
- There is no fee required to become a part of this list. The ONLY
- requirements are:
-
- 1. The BBS must be privately owned (no Freenets, and no University BBS's).
-
- 2. The BBS must be accessible on the Internet via TELNET and/or RLOGIN.
-
- 3. It must "be" a BBS of some kind - sites that provide internet
- services, must also have a variety of local services. This is not a
- listing of "internet providers".
-
- 4. The BBS must be in operation "24 hours" a day, excluding maintenance
- and mail-run times, and Internet accessibility must be active during
- normal BBS operating time. (For example, sites that connect to the
- Internet for only couple of hours a day are NOT on this list.)
-
- 5. The BBS must accept new users. What's the point in advertising a
- "closed" system that won't let anyone login?
-
- We also request that any additions or changes to this list be submitted
- by a sysop of the system (we don't take user-contributions of list
- information) - this is to protect the integrity of the list, and the
- systems on the list. Please also be sure to supply a valid internet
- address.
-
- The only sites this list does not accept are those that are not
- BBS's, or not accessible via TELNET or RLOGIN. FTP-only sites,
- FREENET's, and University Mainframes are not - by our definition
- - BBS's. This list also does not include sites that offer Internet
- services ONLY - to get on this list you must provide a variety of
- services resident to your own system. We don't mean to exclude
- systems, but there are already a lot of lists out there, and that's
- what makes this list different ;)
-
- NOTE: I WILL verify all additions to this list via telnet! I do not
- require or request a "guest" account - I am merely confirming that the
- telnet address is "alive" and eventually gets me to some kind of login
- prompt.
-
- Submit new systems or updates by completing the information below,
- and send it via internet email to:
-
- cerebus@dkmail.dkeep.com
- (alternate) cerebus@freenet.ufl.edu
- (alternate) cerebus@gcomm.com
-
- Please don't send submissions to ALL of the addresses above. I only
- include them in case someone has a problem with the main address (you know
- how internet email can be..).
-
- For MBBS systems on other mail networks, other valid addresses are:
-
- Cerebus@DKM (MajorNET) or Cerebus@30 (Netaccess)
