I managed to get the connectivity problem fixed. I was editing the sbbs.ini to see if I could get it using syslogd for a 'hard copy' of any errors I was...
All firewalls will use the same standard TCP/IP ports unless specified to use something else. Port 80 for web is port 80 for web unless your change it. If...
Well if you have a dial up account, try using that to connect to the bbs either via telnet or web interface. You might be able to connect to it locally via the...
@ Rob Swindell: I've indeed read the TCP/IP FAQ, but I didn't see anything there beyond which ports to open in the firewall. Unless I missed a link to another...
Thanks for replying. I don't know if it can or will accept WAN-side connections; I don't have a way of testing that at the moment. My 2 computers are...
You can always do a /etc/init.d/iptables stop to see if it is your firewall. And netstat -an | grep :23 to see if sbbs is listening on the proper port... ...
Have you read http://synchro.net/docs/tcpip_faq.html ? It's most likely your Linux or network configuration. You can use 'netstat' to verify that Synchronet is...
I've successfully installed SBBS 3.15a on a Slackware 12.2 system and can start it up without any apparent problems. The trick is that I can't connect to it...

I WAS fine until I ran the 'Synchronet Configuration' door to remotely add a door. As soon as I exited the config program, the Mail, FTP, and WEB servers...
After reading your reply, I did what I should have done before writing. I started over from scratch and re-installed the sbbs_dev.zip file. Things are...
Assuming you're referring to v3.15a (in sbbs_dev.zip), I'm unable to reproduce any of what you've described. What's the date on the sbbs_dev.zip file that you...
Greetings, I attempted to upgrade to V4.15 on Nov. 19. I downloaded the latest upgrade .zip file and unzipped into sbbs\exec specifying overlay. Everything...

It's the 16 bit version, since I'd kind of wanted to leave the option for IGMs open. I'll give the 32 bit version a try and see if it makes a difference. Scott...
I believe there is a 4.08 beta, but I'm not sure where you get it. Are you running the 16-bit version? The 32-bit version will definitely behave better, but I...
