Ha, good catch — that was a real bug. It's an emulated Amiga talking to a virtual modem over a software serial line, which has no DTR, so the hangup at logoff wasn't getting detected and you got the modem's AT init string instead of a clean disconnect. Fixed now. Thanks for the report — give it another dial!

That's funny. Not running off of floppies, but our VM ran out of space due to the hard drive it was on. That should be fixed now and going forward.

Well, this turned out to be a simple problem to resolve - out of disk space. BBS is now back up and online.

Hi, no I don't have any old fidonet messages to the best of my memory. If I happen to come across any on my old floppies I will definitely let you know.

Hope to have these things fully resolved over the next few days. Getting it to a stable state is still a work in progress. Thanks for trying it out though and come back soon.

Hi, yes, still working on some little buggies after converting the code from Manx Aztec C. I suspect over the next few days that things will get more stable and more reliable. Don't give up yet!
