Hello fellow #retrocomputing people! How can I make a #DoorGame available without running a full-blown #BBS in front of it, using #FOSSIL ? The DWHOST program from #Doorway can do it but, stupidly, it does not support FOSSIL despite Doorway itself - which DWHOST is supposed to sit in front of - support and even recommend it... (This is all pure #DOS so no Linux/unix/windows solutions will help..)

Here we go again, #EuroBSDCon! I may have mentioned it, but it's really happening*: I'm giving a talk again, this time titled:

Dirty Tricks: Using #nginx and #Lua to thwart bots and skript kiddies

This talk is specifically for anyone who

  • has tried to host a BBS on the Internet,
  • is struggling with scrapers and bots,
  • lives in the #RetroComputing bubble,
  • wants to see an early '90s PC on stage,
  • needs a telnet captcha, or
  • simply has nothing better to do.

Read more about it here, take a look at the conference schedule, and buy your ticket!

See you there!
