This program was designed to allow you to be the Network Coordinator of your
own WWIV type network. It's main function is to give you the ability to send
Network updates to the nodes in your very own network (where you make the
rules).

With the release of NET31 and WWIV 4.21a, comes the ability to easily connect
with many WWIV compatible networks, such as WWIVnet, WWIVlink, Icenet, FredNet,
etc..., without modifying your BBS. Until now, the only way to run your own
network, was to buy the NETUP program from Wayne Bell ($300), or write your own
(Like WWIVlink did). Needless to say, neither of these two options are very
attractive.

Now there is a more reasonable alternative! "The Network Coordinator" for WWIV
is available for only $35, which includes:

1. The ability to send BBSLIST updates.
2. The ability to send CONNECT updates.
3. The ability to send SUBS updates.
4. The ability to send WWIVNEWS updates.
5. The ability to send FBACKHDR updates.
6. The ability to send any small ZIP file to your network.
7. Supports from 0 to 255 Groups.
8. No messy patches to the Network Files (like WWIVLink).
9. Compatible with NET25 through NET31 (and beyond).
10. Compatible with WWIV 4.xx (3.xx not tested)
11. Multi-Net (WWIV 4.21a) compatible.
12. Custom Encryption Routines - Another owner's
encryption routines won't work on your net.
13. Sample network files included - to make setting up
even easier.
14. Sysops receive short note saying what updated files they received.
15. Tech support BBS available 24 Hrs/7 Days for your questions.
16. Can send updates to ALL nodes.
17. Can send updates to ALL nodes in an Area Code.
18. Can send updates to ALL nodes in a Group.
19. Can send updates to ALL Group Coordinators in the network.
20. Can send updates to ALL Area Coordinators in the network.
21. Can send updates to a single node.
22. Mouse Support
23. File Tagging

Future Planned Features:

1. Separate program that lets your Group Coordinators send updates to you.
2. Source Verified E-Mail from [email protected]


A demo version of this software (which will not actually send any updates) is
now available.

About the Author:

Doctor Fred (aka Gregg Beasey) has been running a WWIV BBS for the past 4
years, and has been a member of WWIVNet for over 3 year. He is the author of
such WWIV doors as "Doctor Fred's Timebank", "Doctor Fred's Free Download
Door", "The Net Decompressor", "Filetype 1.xx", "The Network Coordinator",
etc. He currently runs his own WWIV network (FREDnet), and has been (and still
is) the Group 7 Coordinator in WWIVNet.


About "The Network Coordinator":

Originally, this program started out as a way for me to send periodic updates
to members of WWIVNet's Group 7 (of which I oversee). Over the last few
years, it has evolved into "The Network Coordinator". I was delaying the
release of this software, in order to make sure it was fully compatible with
the Multi-Net feature of WWIV 4.21a. This product has now been tested with
WWIV 4.21a, and is fully compatible.
