  • Dial-Up BBSes...

    From Martin Kazmaier@1:340/1101 to All on Sat Aug 1 21:52:00 2026
    Does anyone run Mystic with a dial-up node or two? I run Ele, but I think it would be about the same. What fossil driver do you use? Can I still use netfoss, or would I need to use ADF, BFU or X00 on that node? Would be easy enough to implement in the netfoss batch file if so. I'd love an answer on this. I've asked many places, but have yet to get an answer.

    You can use SEXPOTS which would basically answer the modem and connect it to Mystic's telnet.

    Go to:
    https://www.synchro.net/Synchronet/

    Look for sexpots.zip

    Makes for a nice easy setup as everything else stays the same from Mystic's perspective. Same telnet, fossil driver, etc.

    Synchronet has an app called dialuptotelnet <---- something like that... It's an telnet app that answers the phone and sends you to an ip address via telnet.

    it doesn't need to be a Synchronet BBS just whatever.

    Good luck!!!
