Frequently Asked Questions About Telnet BBS Systems

Telnet BBS User's FAQ
Q. What is a "Telnet" and what is a "Telnet BBS"?
A. Telnet is one of may Internet protocols and systems. The World Wide
Web is only one system. Internet E-mail (POP3 and SMTP), Usenet, FTP
(File Transfer Protocol) are other common Internet protocols. Telnet
is a method of "logging" onto a remote computer and interfacing with
that remote computer via a text interface. If you are familiar with
the traditional "dial-up" BBS, this is basically the same thing but
using the Internet instead of dialing a BBS with your modem.
Q. How do I telnet to these Internet accessable BBS systems?
A. In order to access these Telnet BBS systems - you will need to use
a special kind of software called a "Telnet Client". These are widely
available for users of Windows and OS/2 based operating systems. Most
BBSes use a video standard called ANSI emulation. The following is a
brief list of ANSI telnet software. The one we highly suggest is
mTelnet:
CRT (Windows)
(http://www.vandyke.com/products/crt/index.html)
A great Telnet client - one of the best. Shareware.
mTelnet (OS/2 & Windows)
(http://ozone.eesc.com)
A great telnet client for Windows & OS/2. Freeware.
NetTerm (Windows)
(http://www.netterm.com)
A great Telnet client - highly suggested. Shareware.
ZOC (OS/2 & Windows)
(http://www.emtec.com)
A great Telnet client from Germany - available in both English and
German versions. Versions available for both Windows & OS/2.
Shareware.
Q. Why can't I just use my web browser?
A. Telnet uses a different system than the World Wide Web (HTTP or
Hyper Teletext Protocol). You must use a Telnet Client, as described
above. Once you install a Telnet Client, you may wish to visit our How
To Telnet page (http://www.dmine.com/telnet/howto.htm) to understand
the proper addressing format (its almost like the web, just a little
bit different).
Q. Will I be charged to telnet to an Internet accessable BBS system?
A. Your will *NOT* be charged be accessing a BBS. The vast majority of
BBS systems are absolutely *FREE*. However, there are a very select
few BBS systems that do request payment to access their system. Those
that do charge will inform you when you log onto a BBS that you must
send the System Operator (Sysop) a payment (personal check or credit
card). Each system is different. But it is your option to utilize
these systems, and you won't receive any surprise billings on your
Internet bill. (Your Internet provider doesn't charge you extra for
visiting other websites or sending E-mail. Same goes for BBS systems.)

Telnet BBS Sysop's FAQ
Q. How do I set up a Telnet BBS??
A. If you have never operated a Telnet BBS system before and wish to
set one up, please see our section on Setting Up a Telnet BBS System
(http://www.dmine.com/bbscorner/telnet.htm).
Q. How do I add my Telnet BBS to the Telnet BBS Guide?
A. Adding (or updating) your Telnet BBS is free of charge and can be
done easily at our Add or Update a Telnet BBS Listing page
(http://www.dmine.com/telnet/addbbs.htm).
Q. Is it possible to operate a BBS on the Web?
A. The general answer to this question is no. Most BBS systems do not
lend themselves to the web. Hence, you can run a telnet BBS on the
Internet, but it will not have a web-based interface. Some exceptions
are Wildcat Winserver (http://www.santronics.com/) and Worldgroup
(http://www.worldgroupware.com), both of which offer web-based
interfaces in addition to their traditional ANSI interfaces (dial-up
and telnet). For those who run their own web servers on the same
computer as their BBS, there is a Java applet called Java Telnet
Client (http://www.mud.de/se/jta) that provides a telnet interface on
a web page. It is slow to load and it does work, but doesn't allow for
file transfers (Zmodem). And for those of you who like a full
web-based interface, Synchronet (http://www.synchro.net) now has a
web-based interface available.
