I have gotten the subscription DVD of 12.4 and
freebsd-update is telling me I need to upgrade 12.3.

On the back of the DVD case it says
* The telnetd(8) daemon has been deprecated.

Among other out-of-style software are talkers,
I have one I have hosted,and in years past have
reached ones hosted elsewhere by telnet.

Do other options (e.g. ssh) allow you to log
in to a talker,or let others log into talkers
you host?
(I believe what I have runs on Amnuts,have
not launched in some years but don't want to
lose the capability).

I've been signing off messages this way since
September 2001 (by deliberate copy-in,not a
default save) and will continue to do so as long
as what's on the 16 acres remains inadequate.

After at least 20 years of using Usenet, you ought to know that by now
Many newsreader can then either not display it at all, or at least
auto-strip it in replies/quotes. There's a reason it's a standard.

Sorry, I forgot to add that the ncap command is part of the port
/usr/ports/security/nmap or just pkg install nmap.

Note that only telnetd(8) is gone. The telnet(1) client is still
included. You can continue to use telnet to connect to talkers on
others' machines. Though it's probably wise to train your fingers to
use nc(1) instead. (Bonus: it's a shorter command.)

If you want to host your own talker that needs telnetd(8) to expose it
to the internet, you'll need to install a compatible telnetd(8) from
ports/packages.

I've had my own hosts since 1995 and started using netnews in 1994.

I have always been ANNOYED by wanting to quote and respond to someone's
sig and finding that it disappeared when I tried to post a full-quoting
followup of a message...and it feels unfair for me to demand quotable
sigs of others and hide behind an unquotable sig myself.
And since the matter of WTC rebuilding is a passion thing for me,
I don't actually have an automatically-added sig,I type out the
(carefully NOT dooming the prose to unavoidable deletion) -=-=-
by hand and then paste in the 2 lines by ctrl-R every time I post
a message or send an email.
