I was a much better tech geek in the 80's and 90's but a life choice
of working in marketing has left my brain soft around the edges.
Anyone have a good tutorial they prefer on setting up a modern BBS?
Back in the day we used Wildcat and Renegade but lord knows that was a
while ago.   Would love to set one up again.

Use to use Wildcat in the mid 90s myself.  Loved it back then.  I
actual still have it in a box and decided to install it into dosbox
and set dosbox to convert telnet to modem to make Wildcat work. Then I
used netrunner to "dial" in via telnet.  It was nice.


If you want to set up something more modern on the Raspberry Pi check
out MysticBBS:

I couldnt get it to work with ssh but telnet works fine.

Good luck!
