      Hi Sean,        SD> Hello Phil,               SD> 21 May 18 22:19 at you wrote to mark lewis:        PK>> Spent a few hours this weekend testdriving several different doors to        PK>> realize that none will integrate into a MysticBBS without manual        PK>> housekeeping.               SD> I went through three levels of Hell moving my DOS doors from OS/2 to         SD> Linux at         SD> first.

MBSE has a very good system for running DOS       doors         SD> under DOSemu.              I made that change back in the last 1990s & moved from Windows 3.11 to Linux &       MBSE. Played a little with Mystic/Slackware but ended up staying with       MBSE/FreeBSD becuase it was so stable & just worked. Becuase my previous bbs       was PowerBBS, not many doors made the transistion. FFS, BRE, TWars, &       ArrowBridge was about all. That system is currently mothballed at home.               Anytime I move overseas for employment, I fire up husky & binkd on a hosted       server in Colorado so I dont have to bother the wife with reboots or server       stuff.              I am currently running ESXi 6.5 on an Intel NUC locally with Slackware &       Mystic 1.12 A39 in a VM. I may stick with it & move it to the hosted server or       may change my mind, again. I downloaded & started messing with ArcaOS last       weekend & immediately tossed ProBoard, FD, & FE on it...               SD> Later,        SD> Sean               SD> ...
