Hello All.

Few days ago I got a crazy idea to run a BBS.
From one thing to another, here I am writing messages to unknown people. :-) Good, old days…

Besides working on my BBS, I'm working on few more things in my spare time:
- 8-bit microcomputer: http://x65.zone/
- An Operating System: http://github.com/D-os/

You can find me on FediVerse: @smoku@vivaldi.net

welcome to fsxNet and thanks for taking the time to set up a connection linking your project to this network.

I hope you enjoy your time with BBSing and get to discover some new things along the way. The guys here are helpful and supportive if you have questions or just want to chat in general.

Best, Paul.

Your projects are interesting, I've seen several homebrew CP/M machines
recently, it's interesting to see what a minimal system would look
like.

I've always liked MINIX v.2, you can have a *nix-like OS running on
(practically) on a 286 on up.

It does seem to take a long time to get stuff from A to B

what makes you say that?

Well it was looking really quiet and the first ping took ~3 days for a pong. Now I know thats not very scientific, but it is an indication.

there's any ongoing problem as such either...

FSX_TST - Test messages and other experimentation is welcome here! Messages
using the subject of 'Test' *should* receive an automated response
from a roBOT. Humans can also appear magically with reports too.

"test" is not a topic.

Thank you very much for your welcome. I had a BBS back in 1994-98 and was also a Fidonet Node at that time. I'm very happy to revive this old "hobby" and to be a member of fsxNet.

I just saw in your signature that you use the Mystic BBS 1.12 A49, but i didn't find it on the download page, where can i get it?

I'm running under Linux using the docker a Ubuntu 16.04 container. Why 16.04? so the dosemu version is something compatible with the door games and that they run.

Let me know if you have any questions/issues.
