• I'm as crazy as MeaT

    From Charles Pierson@21:4/111 to All on Wednesday, November 25, 2020 19:47:39
    So, I'm following in MeaT's footsteps and setting up a BBS on my phone. The basic's are there, now to get all the configurations done to be able to transfer mail, then set-up for accepting callers.

    This part might take a little while. It's been years since I've fooled with BBS software, and I've never played with Mystic other than telnetting in.


    So let it be written, So let it be done.

    This is awesome news!! I hope my how-to documentation is accurate enough for you to make everything work for you.

    Let me know how it goes man.

    Installing everything was a breeze. Your guide was right on. Now it's just going through Mystic to get the configurations right to get the polling going. Then figuring out the ip stuff to allow telnet connections.

    ML,

    You think LG TV's have an android chip? It's an Amazon fire TV. Just upgraded it to a new Samsung, so the 50" LG made it to my garage. I've been using it to test my 16:9, using miracast .. I wonder if I could download the same aps and make it work on the TV ..... I know we've talked about that possibility in MRC, but curious to know if you looked into it far enough to now if it can be done.

    Thats the tough part; but MeaTs writeup should surely help a lot, even if you have to change some things for your system.

    Other than figuring out how to use the scripts he included, everything went just as he wrote. The rest comes down to my own lack of familiarity with both Linux and Mystic.

    I'll get there eventually.

    I had a rooted phone and had Kali linux running on it. Thought having
    a BBS running on it would have been cool. Is that how the original
    poster is doing it? I might have missed the technical post.

    Nice! Kali on a phone would be sweet, you can do that on a non rooted phone like I have although I just installed Ubuntu 20.04 ... but it has the options for Kali.

    My documentation on how I did it is here;

    Have a look through it and give it a go if you like =)
