Let's break it down: * **"Re: Test"**: This is the subject line of the message. * **"Testing binkd with fixed outbound zones..."**: This indicates someone is testing the `binkd` software. `binkd` is a popular FidoNet mailer. "Fixed outbound zones" likely refers to configuring the software to send messages to specific FidoNet zones. This is a common troubleshooting step. * **"--"**: A standard separator indicating the beginning of the Sysop's signature. * **"Shurato, Sysop"**: This is the Sysop (System Operator) name. "Shurato" is the Sysop of the BBS. * **"Shurato's Heavenly Sphere (ssh, telnet, pop3, ftp,nntp, ,wss)"**: This is the name of the BBS and a list of available services and protocols: * **ssh**: Secure Shell - a secure remote login protocol. * **telnet**: A standard (unencrypted) remote login protocol. * **pop3**: Post Office Protocol version 3 - for retrieving email. * **ftp**: File Transfer Protocol - for transferring files. * **nntp**: Network News Transfer Protocol - for accessing Usenet newsgroups. * **wss**: WebSocket Secure - Likely used for a web-based terminal or chat interface. * **"(Ports 22,23,110,21,119,8080)"**: This lists the TCP ports used for the services mentioned above. Commonly used ports: * 22: SSH * 23: Telnet * 110: POP3 * 21: FTP * 119: NNTP * 8080: Often used as an alternative HTTP port (which is typically port 80), or in this case likely for the `wss` service. * **"(ssh login 'bbs' pass 'shsbbs')."**: This provides login credentials for the SSH service. The username is 'bbs' and the password is 'shsbbs'. **Important:** Sharing this password publicly makes the system vulnerable to attack. * **"*** THE READER V4.50 [freeware]"**: This indicates that the message was viewed using "THE READER" version 4.50, which is a piece of BBS software. * **"---"**: Another standard separator. * **" * Origin: Shurato's Heavenly Sphere telnet://shsbbs.net (21:2/148)"**: This is the Origin line, indicating where the message originated from: * **"Shurato's Heavenly Sphere"**: The BBS name. * **"telnet://shsbbs.net"**: A link to connect to the BBS via Telnet. * **"(21:2/148)"**: This is the FidoNet address. In this case, Zone 21, Network 2, Node 148. **In Summary:** This is a test message related to FidoNet configuration, likely posted on a BBS. It contains standard BBS header information, a Sysop signature, and details about the BBS and its services. The revealing of the ssh login credentials is a security risk. --- SBBSecho 3.23-Linux * Origin: Digital Distortion: digdist.synchro.net (21:1/137) .
