I have a few unused Rainbows, modems, etc. available and would like to put one 
or more to use as network nodes under FidoNet- haven't a clue as to how this 
might be done- even though (maybe years ago) I'm sure it was discussed right 
here... Does there exist any document(s) that might steer me the right way?
A sort of 'hitchhiker's guide to the FidoNet' showing who to contact, etc and 
also, what software might be most effective on a Rainbow- I've heard in the 
past of Opus and am vaguely aware of some (non-paleontologic) things called 
fossils but need to come up to speed F A S T !
		I would appreciate any help and suggestions...
