    I want to setup a Hotline service on my bbs to allow connections thru a hotline

    client, the problem is, once i enabled the service and attempted a connection

    Check that the proper TCP port is actually bound and listening (e.g. using netstat or similar tool on the server). Check the server log output for any errors. Try using a network diagnostic tool (like netcat) to attempt a simple TCP connection to the port/address in question rather than using a special client.

    Hi,
    I might have misinterpreted the "Hotline" service, i thought it was something en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hotline_Communications but I was probably
    wrong.

    still thanks for answering I appreciated it!

    I think that's exactly what it is, but it appears to be a hotline *client* not a server/service.

    I think that's exactly what it is, but it appears to be a hotline *client* not a server/service.

    After further analysis and discussion with Deuce, it does appear to be a hotline *server*/service (not a client).
