When I log on locally I am not ON the BBS computer. I am on ANOTHER computer.
If the BBS expects to find it's files on C:, then whereever I log in from
expects to find them there as well. The only way around it (other than to
SUBST or MAP the drives) is to telnet from one computer to the other, which
is a massive waste of time and resources.

The only limitation to the networkability of my BBS is OS/2.

No. It's perfectly multinode and network friendly.
MD> So do to the inability of your BBS software, you blame the OS.
I blame the OS because it makes such simple things so damn difficult.
