• Setting up MRC

    From 2twisty@21:3/166 to All on Friday, April 01, 2022 10:58:18
    I am trying to folllow the docs for setting up MRC.

    I have the python and MPL stuff in the right locations. One of the steps says to launch the python client with tbbs.homeip.net:5000.

    That server seems gone.

    Docs said that the dev is at telnet://cyberia.darktech.org. Tried to log into that BBS and get no name resolution....

    So it seems that I either have a very old version of MRC (got from sourceforge) or the docs have me stalled.

    Please advise.

    Try:

    mrc.bottomlessabyss.net 5000

    Try:

    Well, that gave me some love. I got connected, and when I activate MRC from the board It looks like I get logged into the chat. However, nothing I type seems to come through. Responses are also VERY slow.

    Any more helpful hints?
