Myself i just *telgate from my linux bbs to the local ip of my local twgs server. You can even set twgs to rlogin so you pass the synchronet user name
to twgs so it's very transparent. myself i set the telnet because i offer it also on it's 2002 port for people who want to bypass the bbs.

tradewars stopped working here after I upgraded to Debian 9 and I have
given up getting it running again. I don't have the server version
registered, to my knowledge... just TW2002 and Gold.

I don't remember which Debian I'm on (I think I last upgraded earlier this year or late last year), but I have had more success with dosemu2 than the distributed version of dosemu.

I *think* this is it: https://github.com/stsp/dosemu2
