[nos-bbs] JNOS and Winlink interfacing -- close but stuck

I assume over RF ?

Which is pretty recent and the present way I am able to do it.

You are referring to section 6) in the area that explains the
differences between 2.0e and 2.0d1, Tuesday, April 18, 2006. That
part about telpac is now OBSOLETE. I should probably update those
notes to clarify that point. The 'JnosWL2Knotes.txt' will be the
latest on how to get JNOS to interact with RMS.

Also, you should be running the very latest JNOS 2.0i, since there
are lots of fixes / refinements regarding the B2F / Winlink stuff.

Don't use the forward.bbs stuff you previously mentioned. Like I
said, it is now obsolete. Read the following article and I make
mention of this :

Hope that helps. Merry Christmas !
