Atari-Jess #1 Posted March 24, 2002 hey peoples, I decided i want a BBS so i found some software and here it is, its running of my PC and its not online all the time. telnet://acdbbs.cjb.net its mainly about my Atari computer database, Im trying to make it cool, please give suggestions in message boards or email! Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari-Jess #2 Posted March 24, 2002 its working right as of now.. if not give it a minute connect via this link Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari-Jess #3 Posted March 24, 2002 ok that link doesn't work just type in your browser telnet://acdbbs.cjb.net and try to get a program that is better than telnet but make sure it doesn't have a "see what you type then press enter to enter commands" type program or it wont work. its work as you type!

Doc4 #4 Posted March 24, 2002 I can't seem to use it. My computer says it doesn't support it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari-Jess #5 Posted March 24, 2002 well the host should be acdbbs.cjb.net and the port should be 23 or whatever the default is normally for BBS's i made sure of that... im actually using a dos based telnet client... keep reporting if you are/aren't able to get on...

Atari-Jess #6 Posted March 24, 2002 try using something called mtelnet for DOS its what im using now. fell free to upload stuff if you can figure it out and if it lets you that is.. but post stuff so i know it works. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Inky #13 Posted March 24, 2002 Coolness! Takes me back to the old local JOliet Illinois Atari BBS's, SAC base and Alcatraz! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari-Jess #14 Posted March 24, 2002 I was spying on you sorry inky, i had to see how you would get through all of that junk stuff and if it would work like i hoped! I have set it so you can change your password also, make sure that when you can edit your account when you press 'k' make sure you pick classic which will be #1, you might like it some more than the others Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari-Jess #15 Posted March 24, 2002 ill be shutting the BBS down at 6:30 EST it should be up at 7pm again. its 6:00 now... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari-Jess #16 Posted March 24, 2002 oh and inky, if you want i can change your password for you to something temp just email me what you want it to be cause im thinking you forgot the auto generated one. then you can change the password again to what you really want it when you log in.

Atari Master #23 Posted March 25, 2002 Go here... http://forums.asp-dev.co.uk/ You can get free boards hosted and all.It's mutch better than having a board on some of the time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari-Jess #24 Posted March 25, 2002 Hmm You dont seem to understand what a BBS is now do you? its not the fact that it has a message board, its the fact that its so much more than that. ask any old timer BBS'er s/he can explain it better than i could. I already have a message board but a BBS is just better. I suppose some people just cant grasp that idea. BTW its online right now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
