  I was able to register my copy of DOORWAY while Marshall still owned
it, and have tried to get it to work with XP...for the doors I have
that weren't created with a fossil to run under telnet. But, no luck so
far. From Synchronet's documentation, doors that were setup for direct
comport I/O only won't under under Synchronet...and apparently, a fossil
driver is required for doors to do so. I haven't been able to get that
to work just yet.

  Stephen Hurd (Deuce), one of the Synchronet programmers, is working on
a utility called DOSBOX, to allow non-fossil doors to work under
telnet...but, he hasn't given a timetable for release of that yet.

  I would love to have such a utility...I've got 4 ham radio doors and
several other doors (including DreamWare doors) that weren't done with
fossil support...that I'd love to put on the BBS.
