Anonymous users have read-only access (e.g. they cannot post to the bulletin boards nor send e-mail); [...] Prerequisite software
FreePort is distributed in source code. You will need typical Unix program development tools including an C compiler, yacc, and linker. The publicly available layered software mentioned above is available from various ftp sites on the internet,
(where ?)
or is available from CWRU as a complete collection of the prerequisite source code.
(where ?) [...]
Installation and maintenance of the FreePort software requires an experienced Unix Systems Programmer. The technical support person requires 'root' access to install and configure the various prerequisite communications software. [...] Licensing
A 5-year renewable FreePort 2.3 license for a nonprofit site is $850 ($2800 for-profit). The software is shipped as a "tar" file on 8mm Exabyte cartridge, or for extra cost, on 1/2" magnetic tape or DC6150 cartridge.
I'm still not clear about what's free and what costs eight hundred bucks.
The software is AS IS.
Stupid is as stupid does ? Zen and the art of software maintenance. - - -L.
