	There is two ways. one is qwk2rep and the other is
MKNET115.ZIP. I haven't tried either yet. although mknet115.zip does
look nice. it deals with squish and *.msg formats. I talked to the
author and he is not sure if the package is y2k compliant or not. He
is thinking of either helping out with the maximus project or revising
his Mythical Kingdom bbs to deal with telnet ports.
	Not sure about the other question of telnettting. wouldn't
vfossil work? it emulates a dialup connection which allows a person to
telnet to your bbs. Being my maximus for dos is being evaluated under
dosemu, I have not yet figured how I would actually set up a packet
driver and vfossil on it.
