Using SyncTerm Software

Post by admin »

:geek:

If you don't want to use a web browser, you can also use a terminal program called SyncTerm to connect directly to Chrysalis. Using SyncTerm will result in a much faster and more dependable connection than using the web interface described in a previous message.

SyncTerm can be downloaded at: https://syncterm.bbsdev.net/ and is available for Windows, Linux, OpenBSD, NetBSD, OS X, and FreeBSD platforms.

Once you have it installed on your system, run it, & press [Insert] to create a new directory entry for Chrysalis, using these exact options:
Name: 0-Chrysalis BBS
Address: chrysalisbbs.org
Connection Type: Raw
Then press [F2] to Edit the new entry that you just created, and change these additional entries:
TCP Port: 8888
Screen Mode: Current
Comm Rate: Current
Font: Codepage 437 English
Then press [ESC] to save these changes to Chrysalis' directory entry.

Now click on [0-Chrysalis BBS] in the dialing directory to connect !!!

Each setting much match the above screen capture to work correctly. If something is not working, check the settings above.

Thanks again,
Garry
