    A question. As I haven't bothered with Windows versions of FTN
    software in some years. Are the current 3.17b SBBS system files independent of the OS in use?

    As in could a Linux SBBS installation be moved to a Windows 32b
    or 64b system? Assuming that Synchronet has already been
    installed on the Windows PC.

    Yes, very easy. Read more here:

    Thanks Dan. I have on occasion been told that I act like a child so that might make it easier. :)
