   This and the handle. Thats all we need to get as parameters. The rest of the   
   data can be hardcoded on the batchfile to create when the DOOR32.SYS is   
   created.

   Not really as you can receive cooand line parameters on the batch file that   
   executes the door and from there create the temporary DOOR32.SYS.   
   For example, if you invoke:   
      
   C:\BBS\BBSLINK.BAT *H *R *N lord   
      
   from within the batch file you need to create the DOOR32.SYS before invoking   
   BBSLINK.EXE like:   
      
   REM ##########################   
   REM # CREATE DOOR32.SYS   
   REM ##########################   
   TYPE "1" > DOOR32.SYS                                   <--- Line 1 : Comm   
   type (0=local, 1=serial, 2=telnet)   
   TYPE %1 >> DOOR32.SYS                                   <--- Line 2 : Comm or   
   socket handle   
   TYPE 57600 >> DOOR32.SYS                                <--- Line 3 : Baud rate   
   TYPE "Remote Access 2.62" >> DOOR32.SYS                 <--- Line 4 : BBSID   
   (software name and version)   
   TYPE %2 >> DOOR32.SYS                                   <--- Line 5 : User   
   record position (1-based)   
   TYPE "Joe User" >> DOOR32.SYS                           <--- Line 6 : User's   
   real name   
   TYPE "Joe Handle" >> DOOR32.SYS                         <--- Line 7 : User's   
   handle/alias   
   TYPE "10" >> DOOR32.SYS                                 <--- Line 8 : User's   
   security level   
   TYPE "500" >> DOOR32.SYS                                <--- Line 9 : User's   
   time left (in minutes)   
   TYPE "1" >> DOOR32.SYS                                  <--- Line 10:   
   Emulation (0 = ASCII, 1 = ANSI, 2 = AVATAR, 3 = RIP)

   node number   
      
   REM #########################   
   REM # INVOKE BBSLINK   
   REM #########################   
   BBS.LINK.EXE %4 %2   
      
   Something like this....   
      
   Let me know if you can achieve this.
