<H1>MBSE BBS Setup - TTY Lines.</H1>
<P>
<h3>Introduction.</H3>
<P>
For each line your bbs has you must setup a tty line. This also includes
console lines (for local login), network lines for internet and lan connections
and X-terminal connections, ISDN lines, and Analogue modem lines. If a call
comes in over a tty you didn't define, that call is refused. So if you are
directly connected to the internet, and have only 5 network tty's defined,
then maximum 5 users are allowed to telnet to your bbs via the internet.
<p>
One thing about the portspeed, this is only needed for devices connected to
serial ports such as modems and external ISDN adapters. For network tty's and
internal ISDN cards this should be set to zero. If you set it to some other value,
things still word but you will get error messages in the logs.
<p>
A note about the EMSI flags, this <u>must</u> match your modem capabilities, if
not dialout will not work correct. It is used to see which line to use to call
a certain node. If you add the X75 flag on an analogue line, your system will try to
call ISDN nodes using an analogue modem. So these are not your nodelist flags as they
may represent combined ISDN and analogue flags but the flags that belong to a modem.
