RA has no way to determine if the connection is POTS or TELNET...       2. RA has no way of knowing the socket handle number of a telnet connection...              the first two lines of door32.sys need the above in formation and there's just       no way for RA to get that information...              according to the 2000 revision 1 specification of DOOR32.SYS, three bbses       supported it... Mystic, EleBBS, and Synchronet... i'm sure that others also       support it these days... especially if they support telnet connections       directly without needing a shim providing a virtual modem...              aside from the above, i don't know of any way of running DOOR32.SYS doors from       a RA system...              )\/(ark              ... I majored in Animal Husbandry.... until they caught me at it.       ---        * Origin: (1:3634/12.73)    |
