 RJ> (4) Path to dropfile            : d:\sbbs\node4

Make sure that is right. I have scratched my head in the past. Make sure it
is exactly where your bbs puts the "door.sys" file


 RJ> (6) Locked port speed           : Port not locked

A lot of times it helps to lock the port. Not saying it is necessary. But may help.

If you are running a batch file to start the start.bat ( usually do when
running igms, make sure your paths are right for that too. I run straight
from start.bat, but in the past I had a lord.bat call the start.bat and
after the game some maintenance would run for some igms. I don't know your
set up.

If your paths are right in start.bat. In Telegard, I just call the door and
pass the current node number on to it. Also, I know it sounds stupid. but
make sure the paths in lord config, match for each node. for example here
it would be c:\telegard\node1  for the path to door.sys on node one. Now if
in a hurry, I may have that for node 2 and am screwed in the lord config.
Just trying to think of anything that could be throwing you a curve. Good
Luck

Mike
