      From: abaker.ig@gmail.com              mbrad, there was a Vircom TCP/IP for allowing incoming connections to WG2. Wg       had it built it, but it was pretty garbage .. I got it working and it was       slooooow.              The DMA server allowed you to have 2 computers both running WG2 or MBBS Dos       based, but transparently using RLogin (DMA incoming connection) you could       select a door game from the menu that would transparently log you into a 2nd       machine - allowed for        clustering. It was great when WG3 came out and people still wanted to run       their DOS games without having to setup 2 BBS'.              The users would still be able to use global command from the parent BBS and       page, global chat, view user list as if they were part of the parent BBS, but       they were on the 2nd. I had one edited mud running on my DOS, and a legit non       edited on my WG3        front end and Mutants on my DMA server..               I looked through all my old hard drives years ago and couldn't find my dma       server HD anywhere :(              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
