It is a from-scratch Win32/x64 port of ProBoard, the BBS originally written in Borland C++ for 16-bit DOS. The port keeps the original engine's behavior and its on-disk data formats wherever possible and replaces everything DOS-specific (console I/O, file locking, door spawning, the plug-in interface) with native Windows equivalents. text/html 2026-11-03T05:57:12+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.proboardbbs.com/wiki/Current/doku.php?id=v4:sidebar&rev=1793656632&do=diff ProBoard v4 INTRODUCTION * Introduction * What's new in v4 INSTALLING AND UPGRADING * Overview * Before you install * Installing ProBoard v4 * Upgrading from 16-bit * FastEcho and Internet Rex * Program updates GETTING STARTED * Overview * First configuration * Starting PBDispatch * Your first caller * Going online CONNECTING CALLERS * Telnet * RLogin * SSH * Login Guard * Host Filter * FTP downloads * Web portal * News (NNTP) * PBTerm PBCONFI… text/html 2026-11-03T09:28:26+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.proboardbbs.com/wiki/Current/doku.php?id=v4:start&rev=1793669306&do=diff ProBoard v4 Documentation The Choice of Professionals.
