    If Spitfire BBS can be telnet accessible, I'm sure TAG can :)

    If you documented the process, I'd love to see it.

    can you run spitfire already connected?
    if so we could use synchronet to handle telnet. it could launch it like a door.

    You got it. any question, let me know. I spent the most time trying to get the SF init strings configed so it would pick up calls. The info in the howto will work with SF but not sure about other BBS programs.
