Me thinks Peter is still confused. He insists on talking about ftp and we
want to talk about telnet. I think I'm going to have to feed him in the
next day or so.
To telnet into the os2bbs using the command line telnet:
- open a command line session
- type telnet bbs.os2bbs.com and press enter
- wait for telnet to connect
- you will be prompted for a user name
- type in your name followed by enter
- if your are already a member you will be prompted for a password
otherwise you can go through the usual bbs signup process
There lots of other ways to do the same thing. From your browser, type
telnet://bbs.os2bbs.com
in the location line. This is a bit hokey because all it does is invoke
telnetpm. :-)
