Hi all,

After a lot of trial and error I managed to get a telnet accessible Warp
Six BBS operational using a Platinum //e, a Rasberry Pi (running tcpser),
and a USB to serial converter. Surprisingly the whole darn thing worked by
just plugging the serial converter directly into the //e's super serial
card. A CFFA 3000 is used for disk storage.

You can connect to the board by visiting matrixreturns.dyndns.org on port
6401. Just like the old days it can only take one caller at a time. My //e
lacks a clock so it doesn't enforce time limits at the moment :).

I recommend using syncterm as a client on a Mac or PC.

I'll try to keep it running as long as the hardware holds out and there's
interest.  Hope to see you!


er ...i got on and made an account ..it worked fine using HyperAccess 8.4 (reg ver)..just as another terminal pkg that worked ok fyi
