For you die hard Linux users, have a question. When running a mailer
and/or bbs system, do you prefer pure text based systems or do like
GUI versions?
Also do prefer to run just a DOS based system or native Linux system?
i'm not a die hard linux user/fan but i am all linux now since my OS/2 system died...
i currently run all native linux software except for using dosemu for some 16bit dos doors... there is no gui on the bbs system at all so everything is text mode... the bbs system's OS install is a bare ubuntu server so there's not
even apache, php, or a sql database in the way... i'm running synchronet bbs with its javascript binkit mailer and tickit file tosser... messages are handled by sbbs' native sbbsecho tosser... i do sometimes run binkd instead of binkit as my mailer... pretty much everything running here, bbs-wise, is compiled here...
