Subject: Packet BBSes on ax25d

Hi all,
Well, I'm in the midst of setting up an experimental packet station.
Amongst other things, I've set up ax25d with Unode and uucico.
Those work fine. I can "dial in" using ax25_call to the UUCP service to
exchange files, news and mail. I can also call in to the node service.
I'm looking around for something that can act as a BBS to work with
software like Outpost PM (http://www.outpostpm.org) so we can evaluate
it.
Among the packet BBSes it talks to is F6FBB BBS. Well, I managed to
find sources, compile those, install them.
Then comes the fun bit of configuring. So far as much as I get is a
telnet interface that tells me my callsign isn't registered no matter
what callsign I put in, and a AX.25 SSID that beautifully emulates
/bin/cat.
Utterly useless. I've clearly done something wrong, but it's going to
require some digging to find out what.
So since ax25d works, I'm on the look-out for some BBS software that
could possibly work within ax25d.
I recognise this has been asked before: back in 1998. I ask now
in case things have changed.
Has anyone seen such software?
Regards,
Stuart Longland
