I'm running Hermes II on an LC 475 ( Luddite's Cave )... it's a bit buggy, but my requirements are fairly modest. I found it easy to get up and running, but more advanced configuration is somewhat less than intuitive in places.
Hello Luddite! Wow! Absolutely great! Another Hermes BBS SysOp makes his presence known! Well, that makes two of us Macintosh BBS SysOps...well, really, three of us. Walter Bowen is also still running his Hermes BBS on a Macintosh down in Denton, Texas. It's called The Mezzanine BBS. However, he appears to be using an older version of Hermes, so you can't download files via TCP/IP. You can access his board at:

Mezzanine

I would definitely like to stay in touch with you. BTW, if you have any configuration problems, I will do my best to help you. Just post your problems on the Armageddon BBS in the "Ask For BBS Help" conference.

I think it would be great if we started a Macintosh BBS ring to support each other's endeavors. I will be checking out your board soon, and then will probably be adding you to my BBS list on my board. I am thinking that I only want to add active, Macintosh BBSes to the list. There are already plenty of Windows lists, so I think we should support our own platform insofar as BBSing is concerned.

Anyway, it was great to hear from you. Oh, what telnet client did you use to access my board? Was the ANSI displayed properly for you?

Thanks!
