    I think the nightly checker checks Telnet (obviously), SMTP, and Finger. Tho
    ugh
    the actual inter-BBS messaging uses different (UDP) protocols now. So I gues
    s
    you'll need to have all of them up and listening. I should check that (it's
    on
    my todo list to overhaul the BBS list module).

    I still am at a loss with this one. Somedays I wish I weren't a completionist. I doubt many use the feature, but I can't get it to work on my bbs (oxfordmi) no matter what I do. Same 9 or 10 systems listed every time I look. All ports are open for TCP/UDP and I am on the list.
