A Private Node system must however be set up carefully, and with the assitance of your local bulletin board System Operator (SysOp). This is required as he will have to alter his system to allow you to access it for mail.
Once you have contacted your SysOp and agreed that you will call him for mail you will need to download the NeST Kit. The kit contains Policy and other Documents ( NeST Application Form. ) you must read (and complete) before being allowed to apply for NeST membership.
The rules and regulations of NeST are not overly harsh or too lax, but ensure that the network operates as smoothly as possible, and therefore provides a framework that everyone works within as well as being a guide to NeST ettiquette.
Once you have completed the NeST application form you should send it to your SysOp who will then use the information within in to set his system up for you to call him, and to ensure the master NeST nodelist (NeSTList) is updated to show your address.
Once this has been completed your SysOp will provide you with the software needed to set yourself up as a private node.
When this has been completed succesfully you will have all the benefits of NeST available to you; all open message areas will be available (even the Admistration areas), full access to the NeST file networks, minimum time spent connected on the phone lines, and your email address available to all NeST users for easy, fast contact.
