The only way I’ve been able to BBS at home is using the Comet, hooked to the mac, using the mac’s wifi, and using the Ethernet cable to chain to the Comet. But I’m stuck at 2400 baud with that soluti…
A reader named Mike sent this in. He wanted to use his Raspberry Pi as the modem emulator, and his Mac with Vice to call BBSes. Here’s the working combo he came up with: 1. Install tcpser on my Raspberry Pi. 2. Run tcpser with this command line: tcpser -v 25232 -p 6400 -tSs -l 7 -i “k0” -s…

I spent a good chunk of my day figuring out how to install it on my Raspberry Pi. Thanks to Jasmaz and ShadowM for putting in the time to help me out with this. And Vid…
