Hey guys, I'm the current maintainer of Daydream BBS for linux.  I have a bbs at http://telnet://montereybbs.ath.cx if you'd like to see it in action...but it is heavily customized.  :)


I visited it with my A500 yesterday:



Looks nice. ;)

That's EXACTLY the way it should be visited :)  Looks good in Topaz!

Indeed. :) I havent't figured out yet how to have it in colour though. And I'm not sure what screen height to choose. I picked 40 characters, but I have problems in some menus. Maybe I'll try a different terminal program.

Wow, it has been so long ago but I still get that feeling of - hey I gotta hang up soon, otherwise the phone bill will explode. :D

I think the best settings are 80x24 or 80x25 for screen size


OK, I'll try those settings.

Also, I highly recommend DCTelnet as a client.  It's on aminet.


Won't work on my rather stock A500. It doesn't even have ethernet, I connected with the help of a serial device server. ;)
