(A quick rescan brought in these missing messages)

I use nmap for portscans, usually running from an external server if scanning my own IP's.

nmap -P -n <externalip>

The https://www.canyouseeme.org/ website that Sean mentioned is good too - useful if you just want to check your port forwarding setup.

I for one am glad you got your BBS back up. Sometimes it's useful to login to the hub and check messages etc. I will be calling!

Louis
