   DOOR.SYS doors so far. It was all of them I tried to setup.    
      
   Haven't setup any DOOR32.SYS yet, I do have them. I am setting up   
   alphabetically so I will get to one eventually. I know NFU has to be used but   
   still unclear on which function to use. Use NFU to just convert the DOOR.SYS   
   file, then run the door or Use NFU to convert & run the door. Trial and error   
   I suppose.   
      
   What I did do for my problem is reinstall the door to a different dir and   
   started from scratch. I could see the fossil netfos64 was active. Went through   
   the setup line by line in the cfg files and got one to work. There must have   
   been a stray char in one of the files (CFG, BAT, INI, etc).   
      
   Fat fingers and spelling are quite possibly the culprit.    
      
   Thanks for the repsonse. I was reminded of how much I enjoy Renegade but have   
   forgotten so much in the 20+ year gap of using it. Still feel like a noob for   
   not catching the erros before I posted!   
      
   ... As a matter of fact, it IS a banana in my pocket!
