Good morning Robert,

reason I stopped using it was because I wanted telnet, etc. That
would have come had they not gone Bankrupt. :(

You can still add telnet to PCBoard today. With OS/2 (or
eComStation) and Windows. You just need the right tools to get the
job done.

Please talk! We are all ears.


Have a nice day,

as it has been on OS/2, use SIO with vmodem providing the virtual modem port for the software to talk to... i still use SIO 1.60D (or whatever the last release of that one was) on eCS...

on winwhatever, netserial and/or netfossil are the packages to be used... both are from mike ehlert at pcmicro... he's a long time bbs sysop and beta tester of various bbs packages...

Yeah, 1.60D was the last release of that before SIO2k. For some reason I
could never get 1.60d to work under eCS, but am able to get SIO2k working

As you may have read I've come to the same conclusion after being
reminded. I had forgotten that I had read it in the SIO documentation.

SIO v1.35 (1994) was the first version I used but upgraded to
v1.60 (dec.1996). That's the version I'm still using.

it what? one of those files above from one of the sites found? which file?

with all of the 1.60 and earlier SIO packages, i've never run any install process... i've always extracted them to the directory i wanted them in and then manually adjusted config.sys as needed... vx00 is loaded in the tasks that
need it and no others... little things...

however, I got the dreaded black screen of death upon reactivating VMOUSE.SYS and rebooting.

hunh? reactivating?

Had to rebuild the VM

hunh^2?? you couldn't hit ALT-F1 when the white blog came up and then use the option to restore the original or last backup? or even select to get to the command line and edit the config.sys to comment out the SIO lines and uncomment
the original ones you were using? then a reboot should have taken you back to where you were to begin with...

and install SIO2k, which seems to be working much better than I
had hoped :)

certainly sounds like it ;)

I would be surprised if it isn't available at Hobbes. At the moment I

Sean Dennis could also have it available.

that's an old synchronet, isn't it? i think we have 3.16 over here on one of the linux boxen... haven't tried to do any compiling of it on OS2... but the only C stuff on that box right now is the EMX stuff...

I tried the SIO vmodem and it didn't work on warp4, an incompatible

I have an inbound telnet solution for PCBoard. It's a reverse telnet

box for my router/firewall.

The PCboard nodes connect to the linux proxy with serial ports and null
modem cables, if you have a multiport serial card on the linux box, or
via ethernet and a telnet fossil I wrote. The fossil needs Novell TCP/IP
from Client32, so your node requires that to run the fossil. Can be
either DOS or Windows 3.1. I have a Windows 3.1 test box set up with 2
nodes working, I think it could do 4.

It's all free, but a lot of work to get working. People enjoy talking

time and effort to make it happen.

Getting OS/2, grub, and two DOS boot partitions to coexist on the same
disk is difficult, but not impossbile. The trick was putting grub in a
small logical patition (sda5). That actually works. Whoa!

Partitions 6 and 8 boot different versions of OS/2, partition 7 is an
HPFS data partition they share.

Partition 2 boots DOS 6.22, or Windows 2000 in partition 10.

Partition 3 boots DOS 7 / Windows 98.

And of course there is NetBSD and linux.

OS/2 boot manager is the primary boot; from there you can boot either
version of OS/2, or boot into grub in partition 5. From the grub boot
manager, you boot into everything else. The key is letting OS/2 boot
manager be at the top of the boot chain. That's the only way it can all
work.

It's wild, maybe crazy. But it's proof of hardware stability when you
can get all these different operating systems running on it.

updated monthly as well as each having rules posted in them monthly
;)

Note: I wrote "we have". The others have been removed because of
too low or no activity from the distribution.

that's a local(???) distribution problem... empty areas don't take any space so
should not be a burden in any sense of the word...

I can see from my listing of echoes that some where removed 2003
others 2005. In my own BBS I do still have the echoes open but
there has been no activity in any of them except OS2 and TEAMOS2.

if your distribution system isn't pulling and distributing them, you won't see any traffic in them... you might want to send your link an areafix listing all the areas you think you should be pulling from them and ensure that you really are linked to those areas... if the system comes back and tell you that some areas do not exist, then it is time to look further...

Seasons Greetings,

the same to you and your's :)

Good morning Mark,

The Hub and Host have removed the echoes because of no activity in them.
I have tried to arealink (-fix) them years ago.

Seasons Greetings,

the same to you and your's :)

Thank you!

Happy Holidays,

You can still add telnet to PCBoard today. With OS/2 (or
eComStation) and Windows. You just need the right tools to get the
job done.

Please talk! We are all ears.

I use GameSrv and NetFoss here :) My IP for the PCBoard setup is in

Yeah, 1.60D was the last release of that before SIO2k. For some
reason I could never get 1.60d to work under eCS, but am able to
get SIO2k working under eCS without any issues.

i never had a problem using 1.60... 2k, on the other hand, presented
some weirdness that i was never able to figure out...

Yeah, not sure why I had an issue with 1.60D on eCS, but 2k did the
job for me -- once I finally configured out how to set it up correctly. :)

FWIW: do you realize how old most of these messages are that you are responding to? ;)

while i remember writing that message, i don't see it linked to your reply... likely because there's no REPLY line... but it was over a year ago when it was written... if over three then it doesn't even exist in my bases any more...

Oops! Sorry. I have a tendency to do that from time to time.
