Well, I'll turn IVM off, like it has been for many years.

Confirmed, it has been removed from your nodelist entries. ;-)

Yep, VMODEM was pretty nice once, but that was 30 years ago, before BinkP. ;-)

But I still wonder why it works locally in my home network, but does not over the internet. Can anyone confirm a working VMODEM link over the internet? There are not so many IVM flags in the nodelist and some of those are not VMODEM but TELNET servers.

i don't know how it works. i'm not sure that i ever used it. does it need a different port as the telnet? i'm running vmodem.exe under os2, but i don't know if i need anything else in the configuration.

VMODEM.EXE of SIO serves both vmodem and telnet connections. By default telnet in port 23 and vmodem in port 3141. That can be changed in %etc\services.

[c:\]netstat -l|grep 3141

31414 STREAM 64872 LISTEN 1 0

i've opened the port on the firewall, now it's available at bbs.roonsbbs.hu:3141 (both tcp&udp).
