Murphy dropped in and trashed my user terminal.
The problem I was experenceing w/ FBB was caused by
AGW PE. This morning I switched to a Tiny2 & Hyperterm.
The connects to the BBS, Telpac & FPAC went thru w/o a pbm.

The f6fbb docs for the LinFBB setup are a little off when it comes
to file names. That may be because I downloaded the package from the 
Debian site. I am using the deamon version of the BBS, so it don't steal 
the box's resources like WinFBB does.

To install & setup FBB's files, the Debian pkg, uses a script named FBB.
This script also starts the deamon xfbbd. Included in the pkg is a FBB 
client( xfbbC )... like a local terminal. If you have gotten use to the 
WinFBB interface and need to continue in that mode, you'll have to 
install the X-Windows version.
