    SH> Any ideas where I've gone wrong?  This is on Windows XP 32 bit.   
      
   Both the bbslink.exe and the telnetdoor.exe work great over here in WINXP SP3.   
   Not really sure why your is having issues tiny. I do think the both are the    
   same program using the same RMlib maybe someone just renamed telnetdoor to    
   bbslink plus i thing mine are different version builds of the same software.
