   Thanks for your work with the NTVDMx64 guys. I just recently worked on the   
   support for NTVDMx64 in Synchronet for Windows and I'm sure I benefited from   
   your previous experience with and feedback to the devs of this awesome "tool"   
   as I found the integration to be pretty easy.   
      
   The only thing I really *had* to change in SBBSEXEC.DLL (still just a 32-bit   
   DLL) was to include an "init routine" (like I used to before Windows Vista)   
   and have dosxtrn.exe (my 16-bit component) pass the name of the "init routine"   
   in DI when calling RegisterModule(). These changes only appear to be necessary   
   because NTVDMx64 is based on an older version of NTVDM which had the "init   
   routine" requirement. I'm doing this conditionally (only when run in WOW64),   
   so I didn't need separate .exe or .dll for 64-bit systems.   
      
   Hopefully this feedback might help simplify your implementation in netfoss as   
   well.   
      
   Thanks again,
