 RM> Same here, remote unexpectedly closed connection.

I use a command like this to use ssh.

ssh al@trmb.ca -p 2022

If you use an unrecognized name it will take you through the new user process.

It's possible to login as guest@trmb.ca and just make up a password. The BBS will again ask you for a password so just press enter and it will log you in as guest after asking a few questions.

A guest can look at and read just about everything but can't play games or post/reply in most areas.
