  • Bluewave & fidonet etc

    From Unclejuice to All on Thu Dec 11 13:52:21 2008
    Over thirty years ago I was an avid fido user and used bluewave etc. can anybody point me in the right diection for info on how to create at setup, where yt get the software, I doubt Bluewave is still being made or updated. And how to sign up with fidonet given that nobody uses dialup.
    Is there a Linux setup or is it all Dos based as it used to be?
    Thanks

    Are you a sysop? You can access quite a number of FidoNet backbone echoes here on this BBS and you can use any QWK offline reader (including BlueWave).
