   It's easy under Linux. Over here, my modem is owned by bbbs:dialout with proper   
    permissions.  For Alan's question, it was a matter of using this line for BBBS   
    since he is not using a modem :)   
      
       ./bbbs 2 2 TCPIP   
   for node 2, for example.

   No, but it is for BBBS users or those who want to learn about bbbs... So if you   
    want to learn how to use bbbs, stick around    
      
   Take care,
