[MLUG - DISCUSSION] WiFi BBS

[Michael <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Whenever I get the time I'm thinking of repurposing a computer as a WiFi 
BBS for my area. Chat, file trading, games, etc. I was thinking it might 
be interesting to make the system also available via VPN to others that 
might want to setup a WiFI AP for the BBS from whereever you might be 
at. Or maybe even set up the network such that you can access any site 
on the VPN as if it were on a LAN.. such that you could throw up your 
own website or whatever also. Have out own DNS and such and keep our 
network sepperate from the Internet. Just a little experiment in 
providing an alternate network. Anyone be interested in participating? 
On your end it'd require a wireless AP that could route traffic over a 
VPN. I'd just be using a Linux box but I imagine whatever you wanted to 
use, that supported those basic needs, would work.

I could have kavlon.wifi as my domain and everyone else could have their 
own .wifi domain to. Could be fun. No .com's in sight. :)
