is there a "Telnet Pooling software?"/ forwarding software?

ok I got an old 1999 BBS running via telnet -> virtual modem.

let say one connection/Node is on port 23. that is for one connection.
the way it is set up now is.
Node 1 port 23
Node 2 port 24
node 3 port 25
.
.
Node 10 port 34

so when someone want to access my BBS system he would have to telnet to my IP address and use one of those ports (ex. 23 to 33) ex. 68.32.145.24:25

if that "node" is being used the system would just give a "BUSY" message to the caller.
and he would have to manually try to connect one of the other nodes with a different port.

is there some kinda software that can "sense" a port being used and redirect a connection to free port?

Basically I want someone to connect to my IP via the same port and the software will forward his connection to any of the free Node ports.
(similiar to how the POTS telephone lines does "hunting")
