  • Comm Net..

    From Bucko@21:4/131 to All on Wed Aug 2 18:05:59 2023
    Gonna throw this out there and see if it sticks.. Back in the mid 90's there was a Network called CommNet, it was made up of over 150 Commodore boards, C-Net, Image, Color 64, C-Net 128, to name a few.. There was connector software used to transfer between the BBS's to make them compatible. Would anyone out there possibly have the connector software to let C-Net DS2 connect to Image?? I am in the process of trying to resurrect a bit of it. I have the Image side working perfect, just need to get the C-Net DS2 side to connect to the Image to transfer the files. If you or someone you know still has the software for this network, I would love to get it from you.

    Thanks...

    Have your tried the TOSEC? its a confusing site to download from but they have tons of software for all old computers systems. I downloaded their games section for my C64s. If not then go to a TPUG meeting and ask those guys they meet monthly and you can see the times on their site. TPUG.CA. They have a ton of software and are always in the process of preserving it.
