Forward from linbpq through uronode to fbb.

There were some problems getting the forward from linbpq through a uronode to a linfbb bbs. I spent a while testing to see if we could get things going. It actually works pretty well.

I have add the following connection script to linbpq

ATT 3
C 44.137.31.73 3694 NEEDLF PI8LAP pi8lap BBS

ATT 3 stands for attach port 3, and port 3 is in my system the telnet port.

Furthermore, in uronode.conf I have created an Alias with the name BBS. So if the command BBS is given in uronode, you will be connected with linfbb.

Alias           BBS     "c pi8lap"

We can test whether the forward script does what it is supposed to do. Let’s start the forward in Linbpq.
