    From Doctor Wade@618:300/50 to All on Saturday, October 21, 2023 08:22:00
    Question for you guys:
    Anyone running a bbs with older versions of OS/2 ?(Warp4, Warp4, 4,52)
    If so what fossil are you using? I am using SIO2K with EleBBS for OS/2 and
    not having much luck with this version. Thanks for any input.

    I've used 1.60d since 1996 without issue.

    Do you use Vmodem with that version? If so are you using a non standard port?
    I never could get Vmodem to work with it.
    Thanks!

    Yes and yes, non-standard port. It explains how to set a non-standard
    telnet port in the VMODEM docs. You have to modify your "services" file (usually in C:\MPTN\ETC and the filename has no extension; just called "services") by commenting out the "telnet" ports and adding "vmotelnet" instead.

    My services file reads (deleted both "telnet" lines):

    vmotelnet 10323/tcp
    vmotelnet 10323/udp

    You must reboot the computer after making these changes.
