It's just about as I had it back in 1983 as
Fido_UK1. I can
run it on a modem that would have been current in'83.
I now want to make it available via telnet. I do have a
windows based application that will convert a telnet
connection to an emulated modem connection.
However what would be really nice is to hook up a DECServer
200/mc to convert an incoming Telnet call to a port emulating
a modem.
That means the Rainbow would think it was connected to a
modem. Connection should be indicated by asserting DCD.
The DECserver 200, to the best of my recollection, only supports
LAT on the network side.
You could, perhaps, terminate the telnet session on a host and
feed that into a permanent LAT port. You'd have to write a noddy
serving prgram to achieve that, I think.
