In-Reply-To: <34B6C66D.606F@vnetol.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk Depends on what you mean by "inet access". If you mean can you use telnet, rlogin, etc to and from a WG server, the answer is yes. If you mean can an external system _provide_ your inet services without having the appropriate modules installed on your WG system, the answer is no. I use FreeBSD to enhance a lot of WG functions, but the WG system itself is running the Internet Connection Option. -Dave On Sat, 10 Jan 1998, Jeffrey Keltto wrote: > hi there > > I was wondering if freebsd supports inet access through a worldgroup > major bbs.I cant get on the net with this server in linux, so i was > hoping i could with freebsd.If it's possible I'll Switch to FreeBSD from > WINDOWS. > > hopefully to be a FreeBSD user... > > Jeff keltto > >
