  • Allfix and OBV/2

    From Mitch Greive@3:770/100 to All on Tuesday, September 17, 2024 06:43:16
    Anyone here ever used Allfix with gecho and OBV/2? I'm runing IREX and Gecho which are working fine with OBV/2 for messages, but I want to setup to toss files also.

    There's limited native support for BBSes, if OBV/2 isn't supported, I'm
    pretty sure that Allfix can toss to file directories and create a
    FILES.BBS file. If OBV/2 can import the FILES.BBS file into your files directory, it should work.

    It's been a couple of years since I've run Allfix, could someone
    confirm?

    Works with Renegade like that. Makes the FILES.BBS and then I just import the files.bbs with Renegade.

    OBV/2 doesn't use files.bbs :/

    No one ever made a FILES.BBS importer for it?

    ... When in doubt, run in circles and scream and shout.

    The one that I found and tried did not work. I will try it again this weekend, or mybe switch over and try out TinyTick.
