    * File transfer issues with RC-BOX BBS have been resolved !!

    I have eventually been able to fix the issues regarding file transfers from/to modern hardware (e.g. PC or Mac). So now file transfers work with programs like SyncTerm, TeraTerm, lrzsz etc.

    Please report any errors or problems in the SUPPORT message file on the BBS.

    Thank you.

  2. I'm turning to you people as I am at a loss with regards to the following issue:

    On #rc2014bbs I use KMD to provide #xmodem transfer over the serial line (and, eventually via #wifimodem over the internet).

    This works as long as you either connect with another #rc2014 using #qterm or #imp or if you use a #Commodore64 using #ccgms

    But when you try to perform xmodem transfer from a modern machine (PC, Mac - it doesn't matter) using a modern terminal program (Syncterm, Qodem, TeraTerm, lrzsz etc. - it doesn't matter) the transfer begins, sending a few blocks and then gets into a NAK loop and aborts due to the error count reaching max.

    So, my question to the wise, collective fedimind is: what can be the cause for such a behaviour? Timing issues?! Old xmodem implementation within KMD?! Some interference from the #Zimodem firmware?!

    Any suggestions, comments etc. are welcome!

  12. Springtime is knocking at the door, so we did some very early spring-cleaning 🧹

    RC-BOX BBS, the world's first (and currently only) Bulletin Board System to run on real RC2014 hardware (Z80 based Homebrew Kit) utilizing oldie-but-goldie CP/M 2.2 has seen a minor update:

    - new "read latest bulletin" prompt after login, skip the bulletin if you don't want to read it / already read it

    - fixed total line count at message output

    - raised max lines per message from 48 to 64 (at 64 columns per message line)

    - added some essential software to the file base (for those brave enough to try x/ymodem downloads).

    Visit us using your favourite terminal program. Heck, we have no ANSI so even a teletype will do!

    connect to: rc2014.ddns.net on TCP port: 2014

  22. I eventually found the time today (after nearly a year) to upload my TMSnake game for RC2014 systems to RC-BOX BBS (the world's first -and currently only- RC2014 based BBS).

    Up/downloads are possible on the CP/M command line using the KMD transfer command.

    NOTE: only old (8 bit CRC) xmodem and ymodem protocols are supported.

    Transfers tested with QTERM on CP/M as well as CCGMS Future and StrikeTerm on a Commodore 64.
