   I'm glad to hear you're using SVDM and it's working as intended for you! I   
   don't get a lot of feedback on that program.   
      
   SVDM was mainly/originally created for supporting *outbound* connections (e.g.   
   from legacy DOS terminal programs like Telix and Procomm Plus), but the   
   listening/answering (for incoming connection) support wasn't too hard to add,   
   so I did. But the way SVDM is written today, the virtual modem responds to any   
   secondary incoming TCP connection with the busy notice when the socket to the   
   DOS program is in use, you'd really need to run multiple instances with   
   multiple TCP ports to support a multi-line/node DOS BBS program. It'd be like   
   the multi-line BBSes of the 90s that used a separate phone number for each   
   line only in this case, you'd use a separate TCP port number.   
      
   To support mutliple lines with a single TCP port, SVDM would really need to   
   spawn multiple DOS programs (one for each line/node) with a dedicated TCP   
   socket for each and then automatically "roll-over" to the next available   
   socket upon incoming TCP connections. It's possible/doable, but not something   
   currently on my radar. If you would file a feature request at ht   
   ps://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/issues it's more likely to actually get   
   added at some point.
