   Well, for some reason I can't get BinkD to install as a service in the   
   virtualized XP; hatch frags my system; and while port forwarding works fine   
   for BinkD, the serial port was too slow f  o   r      w     o   r d    s.   
      
   I have to run BinkD, BinkleyTerminal, Squish, Allfix, and Areafix in the   
   virtual machine; keep my inbound, outbound, and file echo areas on what the   
   virtual machine thinks is a network share; and run Radius on the host side to   
   handle the serial connections.   
      
      
   It's a horrible setup, and it has one big problem that I can't work around:   
   when the programs in the virtual machine scan the directories on the "share",   
   they don't see all of the files. I have to run multiple passes of Squish to   
   get it to toss all of the bundles in my inbound.   
      
   I don't know why that is happening, but I haven't figured out a way around it.
