HOW DO I ACCESS THESE BBS'S VIA THE INTERNET?
Updated 2/06
How Do I Access BBS Systems On The Internet?
Bulletin Board Systems (BBS) have been around before the big push of
the modern Internet. They were developed back when MS-DOS was king,
mice weren't widely used (what's this point-and-click thing?) and when
everyone knew what ANSI and high-ASCII meant.
Because BBS systems were developed before today's World Wide Web, the
way you access BBS systems is different than most people are
accustomed to.
Instead of using your web browser, most BBS systems are accessed by
one of two ways - direct dial-up modem and via Telnet. This list deals
with Telnet and that method will be explained here.
Telnet is the process of using a computer from a remote location. This
is the equivalent of using a computer from the main console (keyboard)
but you are at a different location and using the Internet as a
transport of data from where you are now to where the computer is.
Telnet has been used for many years - even before the World Wide Web.
To access a Telnettable BBS, you will need a Telnet "client". This
client is a stand-alone program that is different from your web
browser. For those who are using Unix or Linux, there is a built-in
Telnet client in the command-line shell. For those of you who are
using Windows 95 or higher systems, your software also has a built-in
Telnet client. It isn't very good and you can download and install
other Telnet clients that work a lot better.
Telnet syntax is very similar to that of the web. If you are on a Unix
or Linux command line, type in the following commands:
telnet (host name) (ex: telnet bbs.dmine.net) or telnet (IP address)
(ex: telnet 192.168.0.1)
Some systems integrate "telnet" into a menu prompt, which after
execution will simply ask you to enter the host name or IP address.
Most systems use telnet "port" 23. If no port is specified in the
listings, more than likely it its port 23 and no special commands are
needed. If there is a number beside the listing, you will need to use
that port number. The syntax for these is:
telnet (host name) (port number) (ex: examplebbs.com 2002)
Windows 95 & 98 have built-in Telnet clients and can use the same
commands as listed above - however the quality is awful (no color,
strange characters, etc). The Telnet clients in Windows NT/2000/XP do
a fairly good job and operates about the same as the ones for Unix
listed above.
For Windows users, we highly suggest you use a stand alone Telnet
client. The best one we've seen so far is called mTelnet and can be
downloaded for free at http://ozone.eesc.com. A comprehensive list of
more Telnet clients is available at the Getting Connected
(http://www.dmine.com/bbscorner/connected.htm) page at The BBS Corner.
If you have any questions - please visit the Telnet FAQ
(http://www.dmine.com/telnet/faq.htm) page. If you need further help
you may contact us (http://www.dmine.com/telnet/contactus.htm).
