I have it on my board, works fine locally and remotely as far as I know.
Here's the batch file I use to call it:
{at}echo off
c:
cd\doors\pimpwars
pimpwars.exe c:\doorsrv\node%1\door.sys %1
Here's the commandline I have to call the game from Mystic:
c:\netfoss\nf.bat /N%3 /h%0 c:\doors\pimwars\pimpwars.bat %3
I totally forgot about NetFOSS needed with Mystic, or another similar Win32
FOSSIL. That might be why LORD wasn't working, and probably still doesn't
work remotely with your Mystic board.
Grab NetFOSS from pcmicro.com/netfoss/download.html and set it up according
to its directions. Then whenever you're calling a door, you would use
x:\netfoss\nf.bat /N%3 /h%0
before the actual door's commandline, like shown above. You shouldn't have
any issues with door games at that point.
On a similar tack, I'm really hoping g00r00 re-implements telnet and rlogin
out in future versions of Mystic. He expressed an interest in a while back,
so I'm really hoping he does. I have a doorserver setup that nobody really
uses, and it's a shame. I've got something like 150+ door games setup on it,
most of them registered, and would love to see more activity. Plus it's just
way easier for a sysop to call and rlogin from their board to my doorserver.
Eh. We'll see.
