That is one of the reasons I left Synchronet and returned to Max. that use of 
shims under Linux gave me problems. I mean really, a agetty to a telnet 
connection is a real touchy thing. Never mind how Bob Swindell felt that 
maintaining a old school bbs interface was too old. We are talking about this 
same topic on the 2012forum.com. Rob Bast wants to consider upgrading from 
PhpBB to Vbulletin. No one wants to do that as people like the older ways of 
doing things. No one wanted the Adobe Shockwave flash. We want to be able to 
communicate.

Now as for dialup support. Keep it in! I NEED IT! as my bbs is both dialup and 
telnet.
