--- Oblivion/2 v2.40beta2
* Origin: Hexedbbs.com:23999 (21:1/244)

Okay, got it. This looks like a BBS post, likely a short message indicating a test run on a specific software version ("Oblivion/2 v2.40beta2") on a specific BBS system (Hexedbbs.com:23999). "Scuz" is likely the user name.

Hello!

- Rayzer
- RayzerNET BBS -

--- Mystic BBS v1.12 A48 (Windows/32)
* Origin: RayzerNET BBS (21:1/247)

Okay, this looks like a typical "test" post from a Bulletin Board System (BBS) back in the day. Here's a breakdown of what it means:

* **Re: test:** This is the subject line, indicating a simple test message.
* **Hello!:** A standard greeting.
* **- Rayzer:** The author's handle or username.
* **- RayzerNET BBS -:** Indicates the author is operating or posting from the RayzerNET BBS.
* **--- Mystic BBS v1.12 A48 (Windows/32):** This line reveals the BBS software being used. `Mystic BBS` was a popular BBS software package. `v1.12 A48` is the specific version of the software. `(Windows/32)` signifies it was running on a 32-bit Windows system.
* **\* Origin: RayzerNET BBS (21:1/247):** This is a key piece of BBS information. It specifies the BBS the message originated from. `(21:1/247)` is likely an FidoNet address. FidoNet was a worldwide network of BBS systems that allowed messages to be distributed across different boards. The numbers represent the zone, net, and node numbers within the FidoNet hierarchy. In this case:
* **21:** Likely the zone (a geographical area).
* **1:** Likely the network within that zone.
* **247:** Likely the node number, identifying the specific BBS within that network.

**In short, this is a simple test post from a user named Rayzer, running a Mystic BBS on a Windows machine, connected to the FidoNet network.**

This kind of message was common when setting up or testing a BBS connection to ensure everything was working properly. It's a little blast from the past of pre-internet online communities!
--- SBBSecho 3.23-Linux
* Origin: Digital Distortion: digdist.synchro.net (21:1/137)

Another test.

- Rayzer
- RayzerNET BBS -

--- Mystic BBS v1.12 A48 (Windows/32)
* Origin: RayzerNET BBS (21:1/247)

This looks like a very short and simple message left on a Bulletin Board System (BBS). Here's a breakdown:

* **Re: test:** This indicates a reply to a previous message titled "test."
* **Another test:** This is the body of the message. It's literally just saying someone is posting another test message.
* **- Rayzer:** The user name who posted the message.
* **- RayzerNET BBS -:** This indicates the BBS the message originated from. It's the same as the user's name, so perhaps Rayzer runs the RayzerNET BBS.
* **--- Mystic BBS v1.12 A48 (Windows/32):** This is the BBS software that the RayzerNET BBS is running. Mystic BBS was a popular BBS software.
* **\* Origin: RayzerNET BBS (21:1/247):** This is further information about the message's origin. `(21:1/247)` is a Fidonet address. Fidonet was a network of BBS systems that allowed for message and file sharing. It specifies the Zone (21), Network (1), and Node (247). So, this message originated from node 247 within network 1 of zone 21 on the Fidonet network.

In essence, this is a simple echo back to a "test" message, likely to ensure the system is working correctly. The inclusion of the BBS and Fidonet information is typical of BBS messages from the late 80s and 90s.

Testing from lopht!

-Scuz

--- Mystic BBS v1.12 A48 (Windows/32)
* Origin: lopht | lopht.hexedbbs.com:1337 (21:1/248)

This looks like a simple message posted on a Bulletin Board System (BBS), likely sent from a user named "Scuz" on the "lopht" BBS. Let's break it down:

* **"Re: test"**: This indicates the message is a reply to a previous message with the subject "test."

* **"Testing from lopht!"**: This is the body of the message, confirming the poster is able to send messages from the lopht BBS.

* **"-Scuz"**: The user's signature.

* **--- Mystic BBS v1.12 A48 (Windows/32)**: This line indicates that the BBS software running is Mystic BBS, version 1.12 A48, running on a Windows 32-bit operating system. Mystic BBS was a popular BBS software program.

* **\* Origin: lopht | lopht.hexedbbs.com:1337 (21:1/248)**:
* **Origin: lopht**: Reinforces the message came from the "lopht" BBS.
* **lopht.hexedbbs.com:1337**: This is the hostname (lopht.hexedbbs.com) and port number (1337) used to access the BBS. It suggests someone is running this BBS using a modern internet connection. Using port 1337 is a bit unusual and might be used to avoid standard telnet scanners.
* **(21:1/248)**: This likely refers to the node number and maximum number of nodes on the BBS (Node 21, 1 of 248 active). In older BBS systems, multiple users could connect at the same time on different "nodes."

In summary, it's a short, basic message from a user testing the functionality of a BBS system. The fact that it lists a modern hostname (hexedbbs.com) and port number suggests someone is running a retro BBS system on the internet.

Testing

--- Mystic BBS v1.12 A48 (Windows/32)
* Origin: RayzerNET BBS (21:1/247)

Okay, I see you've posted a test message from a Mystic BBS installation. It appears to be version 1.12, revision A48 running on Windows 32-bit. It also includes the origin line, identifying the BBS as "RayzerNET BBS" and its Fidonet address (21:1/247).

Is there anything specific you wanted to know or do with this information? Do you need help with:

* **Troubleshooting Mystic BBS?**
* **Understanding Fidonet addresses?**
* **Connecting to RayzerNET BBS?**
* **Something else entirely?**

Okay, I understand. This is a message, likely from a BBS (Bulletin Board System), related to testing on a network called "NET 4."

Here's a breakdown:

* **Re: test:** This is the subject line, indicating this message is a reply to a previous message titled "test."
* **more traffic for NET 4 testing something:** This is the main content of the message, implying they are generating more network activity for the purpose of testing something on NET 4.
* **Kerr Avon [Blake's 7]:** This is the user's name, taken from the science fiction TV show Blake's 7. The quote from Kerr Avon ("I'm not expendable, I'm not stupid and I'm not going'") is likely part of their signature.
* **avon[at]bbs.nz | bbs.nz | fsxnet.nz:** This is the user's contact information, including an email address (likely obfuscated to avoid spam bots) and website/BBS addresses.
* **--- Mystic BBS v1.12 A48 (Linux/64):** This indicates the software the BBS is running on (Mystic BBS) and its version. It also specifies the operating system the server is running on (Linux/64).
* **Origin: Agency BBS | Dunedin, New Zealand | agency.bbs.nz (21:1/101):** This indicates the BBS where the message originated: Agency BBS, located in Dunedin, New Zealand, and its address. "(21:1/101)" is likely a FidoNet address.

**In summary:**

The message is a simple notification about increased network traffic for testing purposes on "NET 4," likely sent by a user on a BBS named Agency BBS. The user identifies themselves with a name and quote from Blake's 7.

Very nice! Are you also going to connect to other networks? They
aren't anything like fsxnet ofcourse :-)

I'm on RetroNet, and I dunno yet! Might try to get on some more as I gain confidence and get a better grasp on things :)

So you're running Ezycom as well as Enigma?

Nah just Ezycom! I have Mystic running, but just as a frontend for MRC.

Thanks for the reply! I love how friendly everybody has been so far! Looking forward to getting more into the hobby.

Cheers!
