• Mystic & BBSLink

    From Black Panther@21:1/186 to All on Monday, January 16, 2017 13:56:00
    So I have BBSLink set up on the BBS here, and it works... Locally... If I connect via telnet the screen never updates. If I open the view of that node, through Windows, I can see the connection was made, and shows properly. I am using Netrunner for my term program.

    It looks as though BBSLink is running properly, but the connection is not
    being made to port 23, so the user can see it.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Here is how I have BBSLink set up:

    In Mystic: (D3) Exec DOOR32 program
    c:\bbs\mystic\bbslink.bat test temp%3\

    bbslink.bat:
    rem Server Address, usually games.bbslink.net
    set host=games.bbslink.net

    rem Your system code
    set syscode=castlero

    rem Your system's authorisation code
    set authcode=XXXXXXXXXXXX

    rem Scheme code
    set schemecode=XXXXXXXXXXXX

    cd \bbs\mystic\
    bbslink.exe -D%2 -V%1 -W%host% -X%syscode% -Y%authcode% -Z%schemecode%

    Here is my command to use with it, also make sure you have python installed
    if not already least 2.7.11 will be OK with everything.

    Command: DD
    Action: python /mystic/bbslink.py menu %#

    Change the slash so work for windows I am on nix so everything is /.

    Everything else looks OK from what I can tell.

    Cheers!

    I'm not using python for running BBSLink. I've got a batch file, which calls
    an .EXE file. I'll take a look on the web site and see if I can run the
    python file instead.

    Thanks.
