#6 UserID and Password

[Jeanie Marcelle]

Hi Guys,
Awesome product this is ! Love it !
When I run SyncTERM 1.2b - X11 on Debian base system (MX Linux 23.1), when I run an entry from the phonebook, it asks for a "UserID" and "Password"** . What is this "UserID" and "Password" exactly ?

Thanks Guys

Generally, that's asked for ssh connections. SSH requires a UserID and Password to make a connection. For Synchronet BBSs, you can enter the user ID you would like to have (password won't matter) to create a new account on the BBS. Other BBS packages may require you to log on with a specific UserID to create a new account, and still other BBS packages require everyone to log in as the same user (often "bbs") then do a separate login.
