What operating system are you running, and what are you looking for in terms of features, security, reliability, number of lines, doors (externals), flexibility, etc. I'd be happy to tell you the virtues of my favorites, and why I've chosen them... but if you want some advice that will help YOU, you've got to give me some requirements other than "free" and best. You do have access to usenet... do you want your BBS to have similar access? What sort of messaging capabilities... all this has a definite bearing on any USEFUL suggestions. Michael
