  • Gameserv & Telnetdoor

    From Richard Vonzel@1:154/110 to All on Mon Mar 3 08:29:18 2025
    Hello All!

    Is anyone using Gameserv with a Telnetdoor setup? If so would you share how you have it running, and your config setting?

    Thanks,
    RickV

    Hello Richard,
    I have Gameserver setup to accept Telnet calls on its own.
    If you run Setup in the gamesvrgui.exe, then Server Settings, there are fields to enter the Server IP address (your local network address of the computer running the server) and the Port that the server listens to for Telnet calls.
    You will have open the port # on your router and computer.
    That should complete the setup for Gameserver. I just run the gamesvrgui.exe instead of the gamesvrservice.exe
    In the Telnetdoor doormenu.ini (or what ever you call it) put in the option:

    {DoorServer]
    S=(the internet address of the server,mine is mysticrealms.ddns.net, without the brackets)
    P=(the port # for the server listening on for Telnet connections, without the brackets)

    Thats my setup. Hope it helps.

    I run Synchronet for my bbs on a 64-bit Windows system. I can't run 8 or 16-bit games on it, so I use gamesrv as a subsystem and run 8 and 16-bit doors on it. In Synchronet you can telnet from the bbs to another bbs with the *telgate "address.here:port". I have gamesrv listening to port 24 and 514 and have Synchronet telgate to the internal ip address and port 24.
    Gamesrv never even goes outside my router directly, but passes through my BBS. --- SBBSecho 3.23-Win32
