  • Running PC Board on Telnet Level of Effort?

    From Master@1:124/5015 to All on Wed Nov 28 21:41:00 2018
    Hi All,

    After some late night googling recently I was happy to find that there
    is still a BBS scene. I remember a number of years ago reading that
    many BBS's made themselves available via telnet. I was always partial
    as a member to PC Board. It was by far my favorite and I even ran a few
    BBSes on PCBoard.

    I am curious what the level of effort to get PCBoard up and running and accessible via telnet is. I would have to think that it would require
    quite a few hours. I'm crious what everyone's thoughts are.

    Thanks

    Hi from New Zealand

    I don't know about PC Board but can suggest

    Mystic BBS
    Sychronet BBS
    Magicka BBS
    Enigma 1/2 BBS

    all as options currently being developed.

    Best, Paul

    Only the desire to do so is what is required. Not hard to make it available. Check mine out at pbmystic.rdfig.net:1023
