Go to http://capitolcityonline.net
or https://capitolcityonline.net
(capcity2.synchro.net will also work!)

In the upper right, click Register and create an account.

In the upper right, click Log In to log into the BBS.

Across the top left is a menu.  "Forum" will take you to the
message area groups.  The COOKING and associated echos are in
the LifeAndLeasure group.  The Synchronet WebV4 interface sorts
messages by thread rather than by individual message.

To check or send Private mail (netmail, mail to/from sysop, etc.),
click on your User Name in the upper right, then choose Mail to
bring up your mailbox.  Choose Log out from the same menu to
leave.

For users that prefer the "old fashioned" bbs look and feel, they
can log into the ftelnet terminal in the center of the page by
clicking the Connect button underneath the picture.  They can also
use their favorite telnet client, pointed to capitolcityonline.net.

If they would prefer a secure shell (SSH) experience, they can point
their favorite client to capitolcityonline.net using port 2022.

RLogin is also available, as is reading messages via an NNTP client.

If users would prefer a per-message sorted web experience, they can
try using my other board, Possum Lodge South, by going to:

http://possumso.fsxnet.nz:8080

They do have to set up an account first, which cannot be done via
the web interface.  They can use SSH:

possumso.fsxnet.nz on port 2122

Using username New and password new to get in and setup their account.

I can also set up a username and password for them, if they want
to contact me at ccoky (at) iglou (dot) com.

One they do that, they can log onto the website by clicking
the Conference button.  The site will ask for their username and
password.  This site highlights the conferences with new messages,
and the new messages in each conference, in green.  I prefer that interface,
but the caveat is that the board does not support https.

The COOKING echo is available there also, and most other Z1 Fidonet
echos can easily be added on request.

Mike
