As many of you know, yabbs supports running clients from machines other
than phred, which keeps a much lower load on my machine.  I would like to
try and get as many people as possible using the yabbs clients (basically
anyone who is willing to ftp it and run it from their machine).  Right now
I have a standard unix client (just like the one you can get to by logging
in as bbs).  I'm planning on providing this in binary format for various
systems and I am interested in knowing what most people use.  I should be
able to support (at least): NetBSD/386bsd/FreeBSD, SunOS (for SparcStations),
Ultrix (for DecStations), Linux, and maybe AIX and HP-UX.  If there are any
other systems that people use and would like a client for, let me know and I'll
see if I can get one compiled for you.

If you want to compile your own client you can get the client source through
ftp from /pub/yabbs/yabbscli.tar.gz on this machine (phred.pc.cc.cmu.edu).

thanks,
htoaster
