Hi Nick,
I just downloaded D'Bridge to have a play. I know it can do BINKD in Windows
environments - is it possible to have BINKD in DOS? FreeDOS has a network
stack
and it would be great it the BINKD component could run there.
I have my 1995 DOS BBS resurrected, using RLFOSSIL, however, mail transfers
are
intermittent - probably because of send buffers, and the sender timing out
before the mail is received in DOS. The performance of RLFOSSIL is almost like
a 300 baud modem and I havent been able to tell either side that it is a slow
link (so it doesnt timeout so quickly).
If BINKD works with the network stack in FreeDOS, I'm thinking this would
solve
that problem for me :)
