    Hi Wayne,

    I've never used Tribbs, can you tell me if it supports the typical tcpip protocols like ftp, telnet, etc? Is it still supported by it's author? So many
    people ask me what the 'latest greatest' internet software is, so I like to at least try to keep on top of things <grin>

    Thanks :)

    Take care,
    Janis

    Hi Janis..
    Wayne will probably know better, but I don't think Tribbs had
    advanced that far. I think it runs like a lot of the old dos systems.
    With other peripheral software, but not any of the what we call the new
    telnet age fangled things built in. I may be wrong. Last time I logged
    onto Tribbs was back in, Wow 2004.. It was one of the last fido systems
    left here in Rochester NY. Tom Leschander, remeber him? I know it was a favorite to a lot of sysops, but I am not sure that support moved on
    with it.

    Have a good One!
    Mike
