[fbb] 80286 and DosFBB

[Miroslav Skoric (YT7MPB)]

Hello all,

It makes me wonder if it is possible to run DosFBB 7 versions on a 80286 
CPU box with only 1 MB RAM? For years, I used that box for 5.15c 
versions but in order to be Y2K compliant I switched it off. At the 
moment I have been experimenting with JNOS and it works but I have 
forwarding issues between it and the other comp running WinFBB/LinFBB.

The idea is to relace JNOS in the picture:

80286 CPU + JNOS 1.11f ----- Ethernet ----- P II CPU + WinFBB/LinFBB

FYI, 80286 I planned to use as a 24/7 packet-only JNOS BBS on the local 
VHF band, while the other comp runs FBB from time to time including 
Internet connection (as well as telnet fwd with remote FBB's). When 
active it should also feed the JNOS box with bulletin stuff etc.

Any idea?
