 +===== fTelnet Requirements =====
 +
 +[[https://www.ftelnet.ca/|fTelnet]] is a web-based telnet/rlogin client written by [[https://www.rickparrish.ca/|Rick Parrish]]. It's the telnet client that you see on the Home and Games pages of a typical webv4 site.
 +
 +fTelnet **does not** connect directly to your telnet server. fTelnet connects to a ''WebSocket proxy server'', which mediates between fTelnet and the telnet server. The ''WebSocket proxy server'' runs on your server, and must be running and reachable by external clients in order for this to work.
 +
 +To enable the WebSocket service, ensure that you have the following section in ''[[dir:ctrl]]/services.ini'':
 +
 +<code ini>
 +[WS]
 +Port=1123
 +Options=NO_HOST_LOOKUP
 +Command=websocketservice.js
 +</code>
 +
 +If you server your website via ''HTTPS'', you should also include a ''[WSS]'' (WebSocket Secure) service definition:
 +
 +<code ini>
 +[WSS]
 +Port=11235
 +Options=NO_HOST_LOOKUP|TLS
 +Command=websocketservice.js
 +</code>
 +
 +You must also ensure that the above ports are open in your firewall, and forwarded to your BBS if necessary.
 +
 +**Before you request support for fTelnet, please double-check that the above sections exist in ''[[dir:ctrl]]/services.ini'', and that the relevant ports are open in your firewall and forwarded in your BBS. Now go and check again. This is the problem 99.5% of the time.**
