 > Ftn is pretty easy to setup;you just get the numbers right.

I hate to say that I have forgotten everything I know about Ftn. Getting old sux
.

I was in Fidonet between the years of 1988-1997 and everything was DOS-based bac
k then and run with magnanimous batch files (I recently found some of my old set
ups on floppies.) :)

I ran mailers like SEAdog, Frontdoor, Binkleyterm and Intermail.
BBSes: Opus, QuickBBS, RemoteAccess (never ran Fido BBS)

All controlled with a batch file called SVC.BAT which was originally written by 
a guy named Gee Wong and totally bastardized and modsified by moi... it would do
 system functions in the order on the command line like:

   SVC scan toss backup runbbs

Sorry for getting carried away and rambling...
