Hello All,
Coming with 2011 new year a new release of F6FBB BBS has arrived.
This is version number 7.05 to celebrate the return to full BBS capability under Linux kernel 2.6. Jean-Paul F6FBB stoped the developpment of 7.04 version a few years ago when Linux kernel was 2.2 and there was no 64 bits CPUs. Version 7.05 is now fully compatible with 32 bits and 64 bits CPUs and
kernels 2.6.
Source package can be downloaded from :

FPAC LINUX MINI HOWTO describes how to install and set up the FBB BBS on a packet radio network taking advantage of level 3 automatic routing using ROSE protocol and FPAC nodes (an F6FBB application too). This is probably the most convenient packet routing system available for hamradio through Internet and radio links.
