---Hi Earl, Ron here. Got your invite and will try to login soon. I havae just set up my bbs also. I used to run a dos bbs back in the 80's. I had close to 1000 users and it was fun. Setting up was a bit tricky now since Windows use causes one to forget the old dos commands. Windows makes one lazy. I am having some difficulties with telnet file xfers. Is yours working? If you can tell me what you did to make it work, it would be helpful

Your telnet file transfers may never work correctly. Depends on what
ISP your using, and what kind of DSL/Cable modem you've got. I've
tried 2 different setups, the Westell DSL Modem, and I now have a
Netopia DSL modem. Neither of these seem to allow telnet <Zmodem etc.>
type transfers. The systems connect, and the transfer starts, but, it
then times out.

just aren't using the protocol 100%. FTP and HTTP (which uses FTP) work great, so, I just get my users to use that instead. Minor thing, and it hasn't stopped my users from getting to the files...
... Gone crazy, be back later, please leave message.OK Thanks for the input Sniper.

I was thinking that the ftp is probably the best anyway. Clean Fast and reliable. Ok..Very interesting theory on the modems though..geez guess noth works like the old days..

If you can connect via Telnet, then you should be able to transfer files. There's nothing abou the ISP or router that would interfere with that.

Just a quick correction, HTTP is not FTP. They're very different protocols, in
the case of Sync you can browse the FTP via HTTP, but it's still using HTTP.
It's much more likly that FTP will fail then HTTP due to routers performing NAT. If your computers are in a off-net subnet like 10.0.0.0/8, 192.168..0.0/16, ect then you have a router infront of you doing NAT (Network Address Translation). Because of this, and because FTP normally uses two ports
(20 and 21), the path through your NAT doesn't always get setup for the second
port. Some routers are good at this, some aren't. Using passive mode in FTP will generally get around this, but HTTP is still more reliable as it doesn't have any of these weirdnessses in it's protocol.
