To connect to a local BBS, you need a terminal program, like Proterm on
the GS, or ZTerm on the Macintosh.

To start your own BBS, you will need a software package like GBBS/ LLUCE
(for more info, Steven Lichter will pop in I hope :) or METAL with
FutureVision software.

We have discussed these two software packages just recently. Please
check out this thread and other previous messages. If this doesn't help,
just ask again.
