  • BBS Set-up help

    From Cwsimms@VERT/RDBBS to All on Sun Feb 14 01:13:42 2016
    Hey folks,

    I'm going to set up a BBS on a Raspberry Pi running Linux via Mystic BBS (Or possibly Synchronet) on terminal. My question is: is it possible to configure this setup to take both telnet and actual calls? If so, how would one go about doing this? Thanks all and I look forward to hearing from you.

    I suppose you could use a USB modem or maybe an external modem via RS-232. And for software, SexPOTS or mgetty.
