TriBBS is a Bulletin Board Service which will allow a hobbyist or business to setup a Dos based hosting system on there computer or network.

TriBBS is one of the most successful shareware Bulletin Board Systems around. Although TriBBS is a shareware program, it comes equipped with many powerful features. Some of which aren't found in much more expensive commercial programs.

Multinode Support - TriBBS 11.6 is an excellent single line bulletin board system. It also fully supports multinode operation. Unlike many other bulletin board systems, you do not have to pay extra for a multinode system. So when your board is ready to expand, TriBBS will easily grow along with you at no additional cost.

Multinode Chat - On multinode boards, TriBBS supports both node-to-node chatting and group chats.

RIPscrip Graphics Support - TriBBS supports RIPscrip graphics. RIPscrip graphics is the defacto standard for graphics terminal emulation and by supporting RIPscrip graphics; TriBBS stays on the leading edge of BBS software. TriBBS/Pro optionally supports fulltime local RIPscrip graphics.

Zmodem - TriBBS was one of the first bulletin board systems to offer Zmodem built right in. There are still many bulletin board systems that require you to add an external protocol driver to add Zmodem to you board.

Full Screen Editor - In addition to an excellent line editor, TriBBS features a complete full screen editor to make message entry as easy as possible.

Alias Support - TriBBS optionally supports the use of aliases in message conferences and file areas.

Net Mail - TriBBS's message base structure provides extensive support for net mail conferences. Netmail converters are available for Fido<->TriBBS, PCRelay<->TriBBS, Postlink<->TriBBS, and QWK<->TriBBS. These converters are an optional part of TriBBS. They are readily available for download on any TriBBS support board.

Doors - TriBBS can internally generate the door data files to run most PCBoard, GAP (DOOR.SYS), Spitfire, WildCat, and RBBS doors. By supporting these five major standards, TriBBS can run pretty much any door program. By generating the door data files internally, TriBBS relieves the sysop from setting up a collection of door data file conversion utilities.

Archive Testing - TriBBS allows you to optionally test all uploaded archives, EXEs, and COMs to see if they were uploaded without error and scan them for viruses.

File Area Indexing - TriBBS allows you to optionally index large file areas, including CD-ROM file areas, for quick location and retrieval of files on large file-oriented systems.

Extensive CD-ROM Support - TriBBS provides what is probably the best support for CD-ROMs of any BBS software. TriBBS supports multiple directories for each file area. Thus, similar file directories on multiple ROMs and the hard drives can be consolidated into a single file area. TriBBS also provides multinode support for CD-ROM drives that allow multiple CDs to be read with only one read/write head. TriBBS/Pro provides support for offline file areas.

Fast Text Searching Through File Lists - TriBBS has perhaps the fastest text searching through file lists of any BBS software. Your callers will appreciate this feature because they won't have to wait for the BBS software to crawl through the file lists searching for matches.

One of TriBBS's chief design goals is ease of installation and maintenance. Some of the above listed features, such as Zmodem and internal generation of door data files, have already pointed out some of the reasons why TriBBS is so easy to use. Other TriBBS features include generation of security level specific menu screens on the fly and the ability to run an almost unlimited number of sliding and nonsliding events. Overall, you should find TriBBS to be one of the easiest bulletin board systems to set up and maintain.
