asof Late I've been contemplating Turning my Windows 7 BBS into a linux server, and running my BBS on linux, Probably Ubuntu Server 26.04, I assume my user file and other important files can just be moved over? anyway I'll check the wiki 1st.
I temporarily moved the BBS to a windows 10 machine.
It will either be alot of fun, or a huge headache, or a little of both.

I did an exercise a while back, moving from Windows 10 to Linux. Once I
fulfilled all of the prerequisites and got a basic install up and
running, I copied my ctrl directory over, then looked for all of the
hard-coded c:\sbbs\ locations in the files.

I didn't bother with DOS compatibility, as I'd gotten rid of most of my
DOS doors and migrated my compression tools from DOS only to
cross-platform tools.

It's nice having Binkit/Tickit all part of Synchronet, so most
everything moved all at once.
