Connect to Outpost BBS

Before you use the fTelnet system to connect to the BBS, a few things to remember:

• You MUST use a modern browser capable of HTML 5 and Javascript to use this!
• If you want to have a secure connection, make sure you see https://outpostbbs.net/connect.html in the URL bar in your Web browser.
• If you are behind a proxy, a firewall or using a mobile device, you may not be able to connect.
• If you are going to download/upload files:
• Set your protocol default to "YModem-G" on the BBS;
• Start the download first on the BBS then click on "Menu" in the fTelnet frame and select "Download" or "Upload".

The Maximus full-screen message editor uses control key sequences that may or may not be compatible with your Web browser. If so, you may need to use the built-in line editor to write messages.

If you have any issues, please contact me.

fTelnet is a HTML5-based terminal program written by Rick Parrish and is available at https://www.ftelnet.ca/.
