BBS Instructions ---------------- MRsoftware maintains a support BBS for MRBackup Professional and other programs developed by MRsoftware. The BBS phone number is 401-841-5844 and supports 1200, 2400, 9600 and 14,400 baud connections. The BBS is based on the AXsh BBS software and is "piggy-backed" on the Amiga UUCP package. Because of this, you must respond to two Login: prompts. At the first, enter `bbs'. This activates the BBS. At the second Login: prompt, enter either `new' or your existing BBS login name. The BBS presents a user interface which is very similar to Unix. To browse the downloads directory, use the `ffe' (file front end) command. # Mark R.
