i was wondering if anyone had any experience with this.. i use to run a wg 2.00 dos bbs and when i tried installing i think wg 3.12-windows on top of it, it would keep crashing at boot up. so i wanted to know if its even possible as far as anyone knows. soon i may be faced with the challenge of making a wg dos bbs telnetable. i'd like to upgrade to the WINDOWS version but won't even bother if no one has had any luck.
i do have major tcp/ip software which i may be able to install but have no experience in doing so, and dont know how complex it is
any help is appreciated
upgrading from WG-dos to wg-nt
Re: upgrading from WG-dos to wg-nt
You need the upgrade package for WG (although I think you have MBBS and WG, since I don't believe WG came out for dos-only, but I may be wrong). If you have Mud, too, you also need the upgrade package for that. Otherwise, you're SOL.

What about the WG DOS version?
:yeah:
Though to the best of my knowledge, "upgrading" from DOS to NT has always been a major pain in the ass, and close to a waste of time, since you lose a lot of modules that are incompatable with the NT version of WG.

Re: upgrading from WG-dos to wg-nt
yes wg definatly had dos based packages.
what is an upgrade package? is it just a different version like "windows xp upgrade" and "windows xp full install" ? or is it something seperate i need to find?
i may just try to get the dos tcp/ip package to work. anyone have pointers on that? it might be a breeze to set up but i havent checked it out quite yet. i have MajorTCP IP & DMA Server V2.22-0 and also MajorTCP IP & DMA Server V2.10-E. (2.10-14)

Re: upgrading from WG-dos to wg-nt
very good point about the modules. i better keep it in dos.
vircom no longer sells or even supports their major tcp/ip software. therefore is it against rules to talk about it a non-traditional method of registration light?
