|    Java BBS Door Program    |

      TID: Mystic BBS 1.12 A45       MSGID: 1:123/180 9c2654bf       TZUTC: -0500       Hey guys,               I was tinkering around a little with Door programming in Java and am having a       little trouble grasping the whole Door concept. I know the Door32.sys file       contains a Comm Type (0=local, 1=serial, 2=telnet) and a socket handle. If       I'm a telnet user connected to a BBS I should have a Comm Type of 2 and a       socket handle greater than zero (I think). So in Java, somehow I think I need       to connect to that socket handle in an input and output stream to be able to       read and write data to that socket.               So, I spent some time playing around with the java.net ServerSocket API but       haven't realy figured out how to get the connection. Are there any gurus out       there who can give me some examples on how to receive a handle from the BBS       and communicate with the Telnet user?              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A45 2020/02/18 (Windows/32)        * Origin: Daves BBS (1:123/180)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 90/1 114/705 120/340 601 123/131 226/30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 227/702 229/101 200 275 424 426 452 664 1014 240/5832 249/1       SEEN-BY: 249/206 317 400 298/25 305/3 317/3 322/757 342/200       PATH: 123/180 3634/12 154/10 203/0 320/219 221/1 640/1384 712/848       PATH: 770/1 317/3 229/426           |
