Sounds strange, but a user account setting of "Ask for editor type" at the time
prompt for editor option From Sean Dennis:. 
configurable feedback module Remove hard-coded feedback.* module name. JSexec console object Create a console object implementation in jsexec for the local console (usingĬurses on UNIX for example). This API would be used by sbbsctrl, sbbscon, and sbbsNTsvcs to update log files
unified log file creation create an API to (optionally) log each server/service (with a mask) to specific. Husky-compatible SMB library SMAPI front-end for SMBLIB, so Husky tools can run with Synchronet?. 
(Disadvantages: back-up filenames: mail_0.0.sdt)? (Advantages: retain existing logic as much as possible) Indicates separate file? Only use separate file for > x-blocks (defined in Use random number to reduce fexist() looping. Must back-up entire sub-directory of individual message files (for mail)?Ĭan't use message number for filename, shared data among headers. (disadvantage: waste clusters, large number of directory entries)

QWK pack/unpack command-lines Change to use extension rather than specific command-lines (no "pkunzip" on. Personally, I recommend running through the process once in a local VM then – when you are ready to make a BBS for the world to use – set up a remote server and run through the following while SSH'd into it.Rob's Synchronet To-Do List Rob's Synchronet To-Do List This is a list of things that I plan on implementing or investigating in Synchronet in no particular order or priority.Īutomatically map to /home virtual directory on the FTP server. This all works equally well wether you are on a local machine, inside a virtual machine, or using a remote server. That said, these instructions should work (either without modifications or with very minor tweaks) on any Debian-based Linux distribution (Ubuntu, Elementary, Pop, Pure, etc.). In my testing I utilized Debian “Buster” (aka version 10.x). The following steps assume a stock, updated Debian system. If you intend to run DOS BBS games on your BBS, it is absolutely doable… but will require a bit more work (that is beyond the scope of this tutorial) once your system is up and running. The key difference crops up when running DOS-based BBS games (aka “DOOR” games ). įor the basic functionality of the BBS, there isn't much difference between running Synchronet on Linux vs Windows. If you would prefer to run Synchronet under Windows, the team has provided a simple setup program with detailed instructions. We are opting to go with Synchronet as it is a robust system and continues to be under active development in 2020. Both Debian and Synchronet are Free and Open Source Software – so there is no cost to you for any of it.
Today we'll walk through, start to finish, getting a BBS ( Synchronet ) up and running on a Debian Linux system. You want to try your hand at running your very own, Telnet accessible, BBS (Bulletin Board System)? Luckily, that process is pretty doggone straightforward… provided you have a reasonable level of comfort on the Command Line.
