Myself I've never really tried, I keep a windows VM to run TWGS as a 
windows service. I've set the door to *telgate to it . I could have 
*rlogin with the added advantage that it would have passed the username 
to TWGS, but I've also opened the ip directly so that players can bypass 
my bbs, so I use telnet instead.

It work for my, but eventually I will play with wine on a linux box to 
try to make it work "windows" less.
