So you're referring to Synchronet on Linux? Yes, when a DOS door using
DOSEMU is used, other batch files are ran to set the proper node
directories, etc. However, you STILL need to use "%#" on the
external program command line in order to pass the actual node number!

Just noticed this. Were you trying to get DOS doors working on a Raspberry
Pi the whole time (before you used Synchronet as a door server)? If so, I
wish you would've said something regarding that. There is no good DOS
emulator on the Pi that will run DOS door games easily. Dosemu has not been
ported for ARM devices which is why it's not available to install. That
would've been why you had problems.

Regards,
Nick
