yeah it's pretty rare but it does happen.  It's usually when a semi tech savy
who doesn't know much about bbses is invited onto a bbs. those are the guys that
ask why no ssh access.

sysops then provide that type of encrypted access.
well i had a blind guy, just one blind guy and i created an entire menu
set and color scheme for him. i guess it depends on how user friendly you want
to be.

i know t1ny had a secure connection, maybe it was via netserial? i'm not sure
if he did it just to do it or if it was from requests.

aaaaand linux generally runs servers well, and bbses are now servers. so that's
probably why these guys start out using linux with their bbs.

i prefer a dos or windows environment.
