   Hello All.   
      
   I found in some old documentation I had laying around in my filebase that I   
   can get VMODEM's telnet engine to answer on a different port.  VMODEM's telnet   
   engine's IANA "well-known port name" is "vmotelnet".   
      
   Go into C:\MPTN\ETC\SERVICES and remove the "telnet" lines.  Add "vmotelnet   
   /tcp" and "vmotelnet /udp" (with  being the port number you   
   want), save the file, reboot, and et voila! you can now run your BBS on a   
   different telnet port.  I'm using port 2304 and no script kiddies.   
      
   Later,   
   Sean
