The challenge with MBBS, is getting it to co-exist with my DOOR SERVER, versus
my doors are like their mpl, but in my mpl (Modern Pascal Language)... and my
.p files expect to work in the same memory space as the current user ...
meaning, they have access to variables like Chain.ReadString('USERNAME');
Chain.ReadBoolean('HASUTF8'); etc.
 
In MBBS when you state the door is TELNET (I think "IT"?) (a) does it still
product door32.sys? or can it? (b) can you in IT mode say:
CONNECT TO 127.0.0.1 PORT 2301 and SEND ^AC:\MBBS\NODE1\^M
 
If so, then we can make the DOOR SERVER co-exist perfectly... it will look in
C:\MBBS\NODE1\ for all 12 drop files I support and co-exist as if it was a MBBS
mpl ;-) ... maybe we can make an .mpl for this?? I am trying to avoid saying -
to run my 40+ doors you have to run my bbs product.
 
Thanks for any feedback/input!
