Amiga CNET BBS on E-UAE /Telnet - (Need Help with)
Had an account on here previously, but did not sign in enough, so was purged I guess... eh well, am here now... cannot forget my favorite computer
Anyway, I need some help with a project I am working on. Years ago (over a decade), I was a sysop (among several others) on an Amiga BBS, running Cnet 3.05c. Had a very good, loyal user base... lots of fun Even though I love the internet, the old BBS's were something very nice... currently am building a website and one of the things I would like to do is set Cnet back up, so people can Telnet. In fact, already have it running through E-UAE on a Linux machine... the problem is Telnet. I think it would be nice to have a PHP or JAVA script, so people can Telnet right in from the website... so any advice as far as that goes would be helpful... but before I get to that point, I just need the basic Telnetting to work properly. Am a bit rusty with my Amiga skills, but slowly, bits and pieces are resurfacing from the dusty far reaches of the back of my brain to the front... I'll probably need a bit of noob treatment here E-UAE has Workbench 45.3 (OS 3.9) installed, with inet, using AWeb, working out of the box. I downloaded AmiTCP_tnserv.lha from Aminet... but really have no clue where to go from here... If anyone can help guide me through this, I would be very grateful... for starters, if I can just Telnet into Cnet from another comp on my network, this would be good Should note that although I used Telnet a bit here and there years ago to visit other sites, I have never operated a Telnet server, so know basically nothing about it... BTW, my googling attempts don't get anywhere on this... too bad there's not more archived information about Cnet BBS on the net... thankful that EAB is here... so I am hopeful that someone will be able to help... Thanks in advance... with more to follow, I am hoping Last edited by Rashivanto; 24 June 2008 at 14:44. |

Try telser (and keyfile). I think it's what I used in the past, but I can't remember.
Edit: After thinking about it, I think I used telnetd.device (although telser is probably good). You can get a copy in this thread. http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=388479 Last edited by adolescent; 11 July 2008 at 06:15. |

Heyhoo ..
Yes you can use Telser.device or telnetd.device !!! i use Telnetd.device ... i have a little bit better transferrates .. ( zmodem ) the amiga is with 30 Ports faster .. and .. on telser often problems with disconnects etc .. ! the one and only problem is the Portsetup .. the settings .. hard to find Good working AT Settings ... and the connectstrings ... one day hard trying the cnet settings i dont have anymore ... sorry ... but for a oldscool cnet sysop is this not a really problem .. !! I use cnet3.05 19 hmm 94 . i thing .. with 4 ports .. it was a good configurable system .. but i dont like the Filebase ... but i love the fullscreeneditor ok let me know .. if you need help .. and tell me the adress if you are online !!! i have on my website a java plugin .. to telnetting the bbs .. its for testusers .. its good for trying .. but for longer use not so good .. only 8 colors etc .. oK .. Greets ... IRoN ! |
