Not An Issue #2

Hello Rick,

Dumb question, how hard would this be to convert to 16 Bit BBSes using the DOOR.SYS format, vs the DOOR32.SYS. I'm a bit nostalgic and run a Wildcat 4.2 BBS on Windows and I can't seem to trick the app into reading a doctored DOOR.SYS or doctored DOOR32.SYS I know the formatting of the two are really different.

I think the biggest issue will be that TelnetDoor works using sockets, but a 16bit BBS doesn't know anything about sockets, so I'm not sure how it would put the socket handle into the DOOR.SYS file?

Use NFU with NetFOSS, that's how I load this door with Renegade.
