I was able to browse this BSS using Putty on my old Blackberry style Nokia, though without CP437 support, or being able to get screen dimensions of 80x25, things came through garbled. On top of that, I had to SSH to my Raspberry Pi at home then telnet from there to a BBS. Yes, even though I was on a break, I need to keep my mind active and one project is learning if it is possible set up "private" nets like this, which can be for closed groups, encrypted. Learning how all this works has been difficult due to the lack of material out there. But I shall persevere. --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2021/11/06 (Linux/64) * Origin: Agency BBS | Dunedin, New Zealand | agency.bbs.nz (21:1/101) .
