Due to heavy modding and use of full ANSI. The graphics will not display properly on most telnet programs.  
Use of SyncTerm terminal is recommended for the most accurate BBS experience

Just click on the connect icon below

        Connect via fTelnet
(Remember to click on the Window with the mouse to give it the "FOCUS" if you cant type!)
    * NOTE: file transfers does not work

Option 2:  Preconfigured Telnet clients with ANSI support

RECOMMENDED  more accurate display.

Alternate works alittle better for file transfers.  But some slight ANSI display issues especially inside DOORS
    * NOTE: for file transfers you have to manually start it:  File -> Transfers -> Zmodem -> Send/Receive

- Mass File storage disabled, though some files are still available and upload is enabled

Bug ReportS:
- When using SYNCTERM client AFter  a upload or download session. Any command you enter at the prompt will say
      INVALID COMMAND OR SECURITY CLEARANCE TOO LOW...

(seems to only happen on SyncTerm)

 

Bring Pot-d back from the dead?

It was a real PITA to get this back up into the internet age as PCBoard and it's associated 3rd party apps doesn't run in modern systems anymore.  Anyway it is currently running on 2x Windows 7 Virtual Machines.  This a legacy BBS system design for dial up. There may be bug here and there that I might have miss but everything is up and running.  Drop me a line if you find any bugs.
