   Hi Doc,   
       
   It may just be you and me following this echo... lol   
   I can't remember, but I Think we have may spoken on FaceBook awhile ago...   
       
   I run RA and use D'Bridge as the mailer/tosser.   
   I use XP as the OS (just because it worksk and I had it laying around), have   
   NetFoss as my fossil and Net2BBS as the actual telnet server.   
       
   Since all of the message nets I'm on transfer over BinkD, I run D'Bridge and   
   Net2BBS telnet server (spawning my two RA nodes) simultaneously    
       
   I don't have D'Bridge call RA when a user connects.  They are two seperate   
   NTVDM processes.  3 when two nodes are in use... :)   
       
   Hope that helps!   
       
   Be sure to check out Willow's awesome MAFRAG file / message area navigation   
   door. Now freeware, up for download on my BBS. :)
