The
TeleFinder BBS package includes graphical client software
for Macs
and PCs
with Windows. You can freely distribute copies of the client
disks, or your users can just call your BBS to download the
software. Using their favorite communications software, DOS
users access the BBS using TeleFinder's menu-driven
screens.
TeleFinder
Server is a package that gives you everything you need to
set up a complete Internet site for your business. Use
TeleFinder to keep in touch with off-site colleagues,
clients, and friends. TeleFinder's Mail and Public Message
areas provide quick and easy communication. Quick file
transfers let you share and distribute important data
quickly. Each TeleFinder package includes all the software
you need to set up and maintain your BBS, mail, and Web
site. Every TeleFinder Server includes graphical client
software for Macintosh and Windows that you can freely
distribute to all the users of your BBS.
TeleFinder's
File Transfer is Fast and Accurate
TeleFinder
takes advantage of today's high-speed modems, digital
telephone services (ISDN), and networks. Using a highly
optimized ZMODEM file transfer protocol, TeleFinder
moves your files faster than the competition and ensures
data integrity with 32-bit error checking.
TeleFinder
lets you communicate with Macs and PCs, and stores files
ready to use in their native format.
Modem,
ISDN,LAN and Internet Access in One Multi-Line Server
TeleFinder
makes it easy to simultaneously support users connecting
from a variety of sources, including the Internet, your
local area network, ISDN, and modems.
TeleFinder
accesses the Internet using built-in connectors compatible
with your existing, PPP, SLIP or Ethernet TCP/IP drivers.
Reaching the Internet has never been easier!
TeleFinder
provides built-in methods for connecting your AppleTalk
local area network (LAN) to your BBS. The same BBS you use
for in-house communication can be available via modem for
remote access.
TeleFinder
makes the new digital telephone system technology work for
you. Using ISDN cards like the Planet ISDN-II,
TeleFinder is capable of transferring files up to 4 times
faster than the fastest modem. TeleFinder and ISDN provide
the perfect solution when you need to move large files as
quickly as possible. Cable modem or DSL customers can easily
access your system using TCP/IP.
TeleFinder
supports modems through the Mac's built-in serial ports and
through Hurdler communications cards. Using Hurdler cards
TeleFinder can support up to 24 modems per server at one
time.
Built-in Links to
Other TeleFinder Systems and the Internet
When your
needs grow, your TeleFinder BBS will grow with you.
TeleFinder has server-to-server mail networking built right
into the system. Using TeleFinder's mail routing
capabilities, you can easily link your system to other
TeleFinder bulletin boards to exchange mail and news
groups.
As part of
TFNet, each TeleFinder BBS has its own Internet domain name
and can exchange mail with any computer on the global
Internet, including America Online and CompuServe. TFNet is
an association of TeleFinder BBS operators who work together
to distribute mail and news to TeleFinder bulletin board
systems around the world.

New
to the latest version 5.7.4:
Version
5.7.4 fixes web page display problems with new browser
versions. Explorer 5.1 and Netscapte 6.+ now display
correctly.
Version
5.7.3 fixes a memory handling of error in certain SPML
pages. This improves the stability of the server. It also
changed a WebSTAR API function. SendIPCMessage now deletes
failed sends so that WaitForIPCMessage does not need to be
called to dequeue the failed message.
Version
5.7.2 fixes the "Modem Setups" bug. Would crash displaying
the list of available ports. Adds a new SPML config option
lets you selectively exclude files from the #dir_list output
based on filenames. The filename comparison supports
wildcards.
Version
5.7.1, the dir_list can hide specified names ( using
wildcards ) --> <!-- #comment this sample will exclude
any homepage file from the #dir_list output --> <!--
#config dir_hidden="homepage.*" --> Version 5.7.1 fixes
the Web page registration bug (really a bug in the SPML
#FIELDS command). The fields comparison command in v5.7 did
not correctly compare the strings in 2 fields, and would
always return false, even if the data matched. In this
version, the correct non-case sensitive comparison is
made.
