   I did a test migration of my BBS from Windows 10 to Linux, and it went   
   pretty well. I created an Ubuntu 24.04 LTS server VM, followed the   
   instructions to install via GIT, and got a fresh system up and running.   
      
   I copied my \ctrl folder over and was pleased to see how many places the   
   file location was specified as a relative location (../ctrl) instead of   
   c:\sbbs\ctrl.   
      
   I hard coded a couple of references in my menus, needed to clean those   
   up.   
      
   Copied the \data folder and was able to read messages online.   
      
   I didn't configure dosemu, I don't have any DOS utilities around. I   
   should consider it for running nodelist utilities - those are the only   
   DOS tools I have left over.   
      
   I've run Synchronet in Windows for 20 years, and ran Maximus for another   
   5+ years before that, old habits die hard. I do like having the ability   
   to move the BBS to a Linux VPS some time, and I'm playing with tmux to   
   set things up just so.
