  • Can Synchronet listen on two telnet ports at once?

    From Diamond Dave@1:103/705 to All on Fri Nov 19 21:16:47 2021
    Just wondering if Synchronet is able to listen on two Telnet ports simultaneously. For example, port 23 and port 2323.

    If so, how?

    I think Mystic can do it, just wondering if Synchronet can.

    Thanks!

    Yes. You just append to ":2323" to one or more listening network interfaces. https://wiki.synchro.net/config:sbbs.ini#global

    I doubt Synchronet can, but if you want to support multiple telnet ports, you could probably open your router settings and forward port 23 to your BBS machine, and also forward port 2323 to port 23 for your BBS machine.
