Hi:
I've been experimenting with trying to get Lynx to run as a door from my
DOS BBS without any success.
I've tried Os2you and doorway.  I've been using os2exec or run.exe
to start the program from the dos vdm. However, I still can't see the
activity from the bbs. Has anyone had success in doing this? There are
instructions in the os2you manual for doing this from Maximus.  However,
I don't run a Maximus BBS.  I run a DOS Wildcat BBS for the time being.
I've successfully run teldor from Wildcat using os2exec.  That's an os2
telnet door program.  But can't get lynx to work.  I also have a
dos version of Lynx called Bobcat.  This DOS version looks more
like the original lynx than DOSlynx.  No pull down menus or any
thing.  However, that version needs a packet driver to run from DOS.
Haven't had any success with that one either.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
Thanx
LAC
