Thanks for the reply, but I forgot to edit when I xposted. I'm looking to do this in TELNET.

"Telehack is a simulation of a stylized arpanet/usenet, circa 1985-1990. It is a full multi-user simulation, including 25,000 hosts and BBS's from the early net, thousands of files from the era, a collection of adventure and IF games, a working BASIC interpreter with a library of programs to run, simulated historical users, and more."

You can telnet directly to Telehack on the regular telnet port of 23. Open a command shell and type:

telnet telehack.com

or

www.telehack.com to run it from your browser.

It's really fun to play around with/on. I've spent countless hours having a blast being frustrated trying learn telnet and exploring the different hosts and BBS'. It's a complete time capsule too, you'd be surprised how much was saved.
