   Hi Torbjorn,   
      
      
   > Thanks Rudi, appreciate your effort. Keep in mind though, that BBBS/D is a 16   
   > bit program, and it will NOT run on any 64 bit Windows system, since they do   
   > not support 16 bit software any more. Also Windows 7 and 8 in 32 bit versions   
   >requires special configuration to run 16 bit software, since this is disabeled   
   > as standard. I have unfortunatly no way of testing, I haven't run 32 bit   
   > Windows since Windows 7 was introduced.   
      
   Yes i know all this... I never use 64 bit software's....   
      
   Kim help me out with this that this was the only way for running doors... And   
   i have users here that play doors on my system ;)   
      
   I dont run it on a Windows7 but indeed i have test that also and it works when   
   config it correctly.   
      
   I run now BBBS/D and BBBS/NT as well in seperated windows screens for the Web   
   Interface and Binkd i run BBBS/NT and only for telnet i run BBBS/D with the   
   same configs and that works fine...   
      
   And my system is running on a VPS server that i rent with Windows XP on it.   
      
   > I don't know if you virtualize a 32 bit Windows 7/8 and run it on a 64 bit   
   > platform, if the NetFoss will work?   
      
   This should works also i think i dont have test that...

   Kim told me there is no problem to run it the way i run when everything is   
   config correcly... And like i told it works just perfect...   
      
      
   Best regards!
